Experience Dark Side of the Moon Planetarium Immersive Shows in 2023

As part of the celebration of Dark Side of the Moon album being 50 years old this year, there will be up to 100 planetariums around the world showing 10 fantastic animations alongside the new mix of Dark Side of the Moon. The Pink Floyd website has 29 listed so far out of the 100, and I have found several that are not listed too, including the National Science Museum in Leicester, England, where tickets are still available. There is also Jodrell Bank in Cheshire but seems to be sold out. There are other screenings around the UK. Some places around the world have already had their shows. Where are the Pink Floyd Planetarium Shows on?

There are probably others too so search for your local...
