The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex currently offer three different levels of annual pass as well as a range of “Special Interest” tours, overnight stays, summer camps and single and two-day tickets.

Annual passes represent good value if you plan to make more than one trip to the Kennedy Space Center in a year. Annual Pass holders can also purchase launch day viewing tickets at a reduced price.

Note that the Dine with an Astronaut experience is temporarily suspended. This also means the Explorer VIP Annual Pass and Apollo Elite Annual Pass are not currently for sale

All annual passes include the new Space Shuttle Atlantis℠ attraction, IMAX® Theater 3-D Films, the Shuttle Launch Experience® ride, special viewing for rocket launches, Heroes & Legends, the Apollo/Saturn V Center, a general bus tour and other exhibits.
