Yuri’s Night is an international celebration held on April 12 every year to commemorate the first human in space, Yuri Gagarin on April 12, 1961, and the first Space Shuttle launch on April 12, 1981. This year we are also celebrating the 40th anniversary of Apollo 13!

Here in the Space Coast, we’ll be throwing a bash at the US Astronaut Hall of Fame near Kennedy Space Center.

At 8pm the doors will open to a variety of space simulators, science demonstrations, performance artists, and live music!

Later in the evening we’ll have a DJ, prize drawings (including astronaut autographs!), and special guest speakers toasting humanity’s achievements in space.

Everyone is welcome to attend.  A cash bar will be available for guests 21 and older.  VIPs get extra treats!

Casual Dress or Spaced Out Costumes are encouraged!
