Chancey PickardMarch 24, 2016Go ahead and splurge on the membership pass if you plan on coming back. You get to skip the line and you get money's worth in a few visits. Also keep an eye out for adult date nights that they host!- Chancey PickardMarch 24, 2016Great learning experience for the kids, plenty to do and see, and a subway inside for lunch time! Perfect for rainy days or when it's too hot to play outside.
Nashville Events ExaminerSeptember 3, 2011From Food to Space to the Human Body - this Science Center keeps the entire family entertained and challenged with cool things to see, hear & touch! Watch my column for upcoming events at the Center.Upvoted Mar 3
Jesse HarrisJuly 10, 2016Younger kids will probably only last a couple of hours. Figure out the part they'll like best and focus on that. You can always come back again another day.- Brian SearlMay 15, 2013Great place for the kids. Don't miss the chance to hang them from the ceiling for a weightless experience or the climb the adventure tower all the way to the top for a great view of Nashville.
Dustin SoperJuly 10, 2018One of the only things to do for kids in the Downtown Area. Not within walking distance from Downtown Hotels, so take an Uber/Lyft or a City Bus.
You *will* lose your kids in the Adventure Tower. Plan a meeting place BEFORE you let then in.
Marques StewartOctober 13, 2017The little toddler area in the middle of the center is pretty fun for kids under the age of 5.- TN Association of MuseumJuly 26, 2011Fun for all ages, the Adventure Science Center's Adventure Tower combines playing & learning in an upward journey. For those afraid of heights, play a round of Body Battles in the BodyQuest exhibit.
Taste TesterMay 9, 2015I felt like a kid again experiencing all the exhibits! Yes I stepped in the ambulance yes I performed experiments and much more! I mean, we parents must set an example, right?

ToryBurchJune 25, 2013Bring your family to visit the planetarium or check out one of the the many science exhibits.
Stephen CottonJuly 6, 2013Get a membership if you plan to come more than once with a family of four.
Second Saturday of each month, you can attend after-hours shows in the Sudekum Planetarium. www.adventuresci.com - Museum is open 7 days a week!
If you're going for the laser show try to get there atleast 20mins early. It's 10mins till it starts and the line is extremely long
K12 IncAugust 26, 2011Did you know? The museum occupies Old Saint Cloud Hill, near the site of Fort Negley, a Civil War fort built by Union forces after the Fall of Nashville in 1862.
Ben MAugust 1, 2010Friday and Saturday nights show laser light shows to different music. The lineup changes every month, but its always a blast!
The exhibits that aren't broken are tons of fun for the kids.
Morgan LevyMarch 4, 2011Watch for them to advertise a Way Late Play Date, then go! It's a 21+ evening with free drinks, snacks and of course, the moonwalk.
Connie WilsonMarch 31, 2013Dark Side of the Moon kicked ass!! Next up.... The other side!! Hang on kids, we ain't done yet!- Tom BeachJanuary 20, 2013Use the BOGO admission coupon inside the Nashville City Saver book - www.citysaver.com
- HISTORYJuly 7, 2010This Museum was established in 1944. In 1952 the center opened the first planetarium in Tennessee.
Kristin BeachJanuary 17, 2013Love this place! Used my City Saver coupon for free child admission! Woot!
Adult patrons, please get off an exhibit if a child is waiting for you to finish before they can go...
Come here for the annual Caper costume party/fundraiser held at the end of February!
