Light up the cold dark season with a warm and bright holiday show!
When the December holiday season rolls around each year, planetariums often present special programs that combine astronomy and holiday traditions. One of the most popular shows is Season of Light. It's an elegant and sophisticated program about the coldest and darkest of seasons — a time which holds some of the warmest and brightest celebrations of the year.
Season of Light explores the reasons humans are so fascinated with lighting up our lives during the December holiday season. It's an exploration of the astronomical meanings behind seasonal traditions, including the "Star over Bethlehem".
