Sciency Music & More at the Planetarium 2026

Nate Eggins (a.k.a. Conspiracy of One) is bringing back his unique Planetarium Variety Show for a fourth year running!

Join us once again at the Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium during National Science Week for an evening of:
· Quirky sciency music, science talks, funny rants, audience participation & prize giveaways,
· Stunning visuals that will take you on a journey through the stars and beyond,
· A workshop on critical thinking + the chance to (voluntarily) contribute data to an ongoing study,
· Special guest: Science Communicator Melanie Trecek-King of Thinking is Power and author of the upcoming book A Field Guide to Spotting Misinformation!

Returning to the cosmic skydome are Nate's band to bring you a special stripped back and intimate performance including songs from his debut album 'Road to Reason' (launched at the planetarium in 2023), fan favourite hits like 'We're All Aliens, Baby' and 'The Sound a Duck Makes' and brand new material!

Gain new and interesting perspectives on science and our modern world, level up your thinking and learn how to spot pseudoscience pretenders! All while tapping your toes along to fun and groovy music that WILL get stuck in your head.

This is an ages 6-and-up, safe space and wheelchair-accessible show welcoming all people who are kind to one another.
