  • There is a lot to explore at the Kennedy Space Center and we recommend a one or two-day pass. This way, you get access to the regular admission area, including the Rocket Garden and Gateway Complex, as well as take a guided tour of the place by bus and explore additional areas such as Launch Complex 39 and the Apollo/ Saturn V Center.
  • By purchasing the admission ticket you can get access to the IMAX space films, Planet Play, Space Shuttle Atlantis, the Rocket Garden, and many more.
  • Once you have purchased your ticket, download it onto your phone or print it out before you head to the Visitor Complex. If you have the tickets or the barcode on your phone, you can get straight to the security line.
