Neag Planetarium of the Reading Public Museum — Attraction in Reading

When my husband and I started our wedding planning process we knew we wanted to go a more nontraditional route with our venue. We wanted a place that felt like “us”. Planetariums are a part of our early relationship so when we stumbled upon the museum it was PERFECT for us. It is a smaller and much more cost effective venue compared to the other larger museums in NJ/PA. It has such a charming hometown feel. Our wedding had just under 120 guests.

There was a set up for a wedding when we came in, but we just had to walk past a few tables to get into the showing room. When we were finished, there was a few interactive displays that the kids could play with and learn about the world. We will be back another Sunday to try a...

This was out of this world. Twinkle twinkle little star here you see them there they are. They have the latest greatest 4K laser star project. One of only a few in the country. They have various shows Sunday thru Friday in the afternoon. The seats are comfortable and this place is well maintained. I believe it's a 40 foot dome. Not the biggest but just right to enjoy a trip in our solar system to the milky way and safely back to planet earth. Then you can visit the well kept beautiful Reading Public Museum that has an Egyptian female mummy that looks great...
