Our guide to Kennedy Space Center Tickets
Located just one hour from Orlando, the world-famous Kennedy Space Center is a fascinating place where anything seems possible. Here you can meet a real-life Astronaut, walk amongst giant rockets, tour actual rocket launch areas, be wowed by stunning IMAX films, touch a piece of Mars and see the Space Shuttle Atlantis as if it were in space.
But that’s not all; the recent addition of the Shuttle Launch Experience to the Kennedy Space Center allows you to feel the full-on G forces of a space shuttle launch without years of training!
More interactive than a museum, more inspirational than a science centre and more authentic and educational than a theme park, discover a host of breathtaking attractions with your Kennedy Space Center tickets:
- The present and future of collaborative space exploration come to life at Gateway™: The Deep Space Launch Complex. See the spacecraft of today and the visionary designs paving the way for deep space travel in the future. Then, enter the spaceport of the future, Spaceport KSC. With your commander steering the path, launch aboard one of four unique journeys through the solar system and beyond during an immersive ride.
- Atlantis - See Space Shuttle Atlantis as if it were in space - raised 30 feet off the ground and rotated at a 43.21-degree angle with its payload bay doors open and Canadarm (robotic arm) extended. Enjoy 360-degree views of Atlantis including the wear and tear of its 33 missions apparent on its protective external tiles.
- More than 60 interactive, touch-screen experiences and high-tech astronaut training simulators invite guests to “be the astronaut,” bringing to life the people, passion and patriotism behind NASA’s 30-year Space Shuttle Program as well as the complexity of the engineering marvel that launched the Hubble Space Telescope and built the International Space Station.
- Incorporated into Space Shuttle Atlantis is the adjacent Shuttle Launch Experience, which simulates the vertical launch aboard the space shuttle. Guests are immersed in the sights, sounds and feelings of a space shuttle launch, designed under the guidance of NASA and veteran space shuttle astronauts.
- Apollo/Saturn V Center - Relive the wonder and excitement of the Apollo era in this one-of-a-kind exhibit that celebrates the unprecedented achievement of putting a man on the moon. At its centre is the incredible 363-foot-long Saturn V moon rocket.
- Experience the thrill of the space race with the launch of Apollo 8. Watch history unfold in the Firing Room as the first crewed Saturn V mission blasts into space.
- See the real Lunar Module 9 with a life-sized scene from the Apollo 11 Moon landing at the Moonscape exhibit. While there, be sure to put your skills to the test in three interactive challenges!
- IMAX® Films -In a giant IMAX theatre, the dream of space flight comes alive with a selection of mind-blowing 3D space films.
- Celebrate the pioneers of NASA’s early space programs which inspired a nation to reach for the stars at the Heroes and Legends exhibition featuring the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame® presented by Boeing®.
- Kennedy Space Center Bus Tour - Access the restricted areas of NASA's Kennedy Space Center to see operational facilities for the history and future of American spaceflight.
Why do we love it!?
Kennedy Space Center tickets provide the perfect accompaniment to the all-out action of the theme parks, providing a bit of stimulation for the old grey matter and leaving you with a real sense of awe. It is an educational experience for kids and adults alike, but this is never at the expense of a bit of fun.

The voucher provided by ATD was quickly exchanged on arrival at the Will Call booth at the entrance to the visitor complex. This also included the $15 Lunch voucher as part of the offer. The tickets with the free lunch were good value for money. It is also worth noting that the car parking charge is $15.
