Kids get a free peek at the space age… but they have to be a certain age. Through the end of the year, kids five and under can enjoy complimentary admission to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex with the Junior Space Explorer Pass. Available only to Florida residents, the pass grants children complimentary admission to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex through Dec. 31, 2024.

Parents or guardians are required to pre-register kids, who must be five or younger at time of redemption. A valid form of ID (a copy of a certified birth certificate or travel passport) must be presented to verify child’s age prior to entry. School IDs or children’s security IDs will not be accepted. Parents or guardians should have a photo ID with proof of Florida residential address as well.

Big Reasons to Register Your Little Ones

At the Apollo/Saturn V Center–Saturn V Rocket and Engine.

Kennedy Space Center is the place where humankind first left Earth to explore the heavens. Just standing beneath the Saturn V rocket—dwarfed by its sheer size and power—is breathtaking. Kids will touch a real Moon rock and get an up-close look at the Moon dust that traveled home on Alan Shepard’s space suit. They’ll stroll a Rocket Garden, home to the first rocket to break free from gravity, the Mercury-Redstone, and see the Space Shuttle Atlantis, the iconic orbiter that flew 33 missions.

More interactive than a museum, more inspirational than a science center, and more authentic and educational than a theme park, Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex offers a mix of thrilling simulators, breathtaking attractions, behind-the-scenes tours, interactive exhibits, larger-than-life 3D space films, rocket launch viewing opportunities and more.

Registration is only available through the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex website and must be completed by Feb. 21, 2024. This offer is not available for registration at the front entrance. Once activated, the pass is valid for admission through Dec. 31, 2024.

Blackout dates may apply, including launch viewing and special events.
