  • Discover the sizzling stories behind the constellations in this planetarium event for adults (21+). Explore Meso-American legends and mythology hidden in the sky as you take a trip through the cosmos during the ultimate planetarium adventure. Much like all our Sordid Secrets, this is an adult event, as those Mayan, Incan, and Aztec gods definitely didn't keep things rated PG!

    Our Planetarium is an inflatable dome. Guests sit on cushions on the floor of the planetarium to view the show. Due to size, space is limited to 25 patrons at a time. Purchasing tickets in advance is highly recommended for this reason. On show nights, please arrive at least 10 minutes before your scheduled showing. In case of no-shows/late shows: reserved spots will be released at show time to make space for the next party.

    Shows begin at 6 and 7 pm and last approximately 45 minutes.

    Seating is limited and very popular. We encourage purchasing your tickets in advance, as this is a first come, first served event. Please call 850-664-1261, stop by the Science Center, or use our online ticketing option to purchase your tickets.

  • Join hands with fellow residents, business owners, and tourists as we take our annual stand against oil and gas drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and a transition to clean energy. Hands Across the Sand takes place on beaches around the world, as communities come together to send a powerful message of protecting the beaches and coastal areas we love.



    We’ll meet at the Gulfside Pavilion for live music, education, and inspiring speeches about protecting our white sands and blue-green waters. At 6 pm we’ll walk to the water’s edge to hold hands in silent remembrance of the 2010 oil spill and in support of a transition to clean energy from the sun and wind.



    Hands Across the Sand comes at a time when the longstanding Congressional moratorium on drilling in the eastern Gulf of Mexico near Florida is about to expire, leaving our state vulnerable. Yet the transition to the nearly infinite power of clean renewable energy is well underway, with explosive growth in solar and wind energy as Americans embrace the future.



    Event partners include Healthy Gulf, 350 Pensacola. 850eco and Surfrider Foundation Emerald Coast. For more information visit Hands Across the Sand Pensacola Beach on Facebook or call 850-687-9968 or email christian@healthygulf.org

  • Here’s an event where cat hair is not only accepted, it’s encouraged.

    The annual Save Our Cats and Kittens fundraiser, Top Hats & Tails: A Cause for Claws, will be 7-10 p.m. Saturday, June 11 online and in-person at Enlightened Studios + The Sound Café, located at 142 Miracle Strip Pkwy. SE.

    Enjoy live music, catered hors d'oeuvres, games, guest speakers and a silent auction. Tickets are $50 to attend the event in person and $15 online. Online attendees will be able to access the event using the platform Remo.

    The past couple of years have been difficult to say the least for animal rescue groups. And that has been the case for SOCKS with fundraising events put mostly on hold due to the pandemic. This is our first year back in person. We hope by offering a hybrid event we can provide a fun and safe evening for everyone.

    This fundraiser helps our shelter continue to care for the cats and kittens in our community and give them a brighter future. In the past year, we had over 400 intakes and 436 adoptions. We simply could not do this without donations.

    “This is our 4th year for Top Hats and Tails and it gets better every year. We look forward to seeing our donors and friends again, both in-person and on-line.” says Nancy Schimmer, the organization’s President.

    Support your feline friends by attending Top Hats & Tails. There is still time to donate a silent auction item. Contact nancy@saveourcatsandkittens.com. Purchase your tickets online at https://bit.ly/3sFrQ99
