We do not have a bank or credit card reader yet. Therefore
all our products must be paid in cash for the time being. When needed
cash may be withdrawn with Finnish (and perhaps European) debit cards in
Hostel Tuorla. We apologise for any problems arising of this. Groups are
billed after the visit, but they may also pay in cash.
Groups
We do not have group rates during our regular opening hours. We recommend
groups to reserve a separate time for a presentation that can be tailored
to their specific needs and wishes. We shall make an offer for these
separate presentations, influenced by the size of the group, time of
reserved presentation, and programme to be presented.
School classes
We offer a specially tailored school package to school classes.
Price of the package is 80 EUR per school class. The planetarium package
may be supplemented with a tour to the observatory bringing total price to
110 EUR per class.

Terms for reservations
We aim at maximal flexibility in our operation and try to accommodate
needs of our customers. Because there are, nonetheless, always momentary
irregularities in all human activities, it is worthwhile to state the
terms for mutual benefit. All reservations are processed in the order
they arrive as soon as possible. Once we have confirmed the reservation
it will be binding. The customer may cancel the reservation (and hence
the invoice) by informing us of the cancellation at least 24 hours before
the reserved time. Cancellations made after this time limit will result
in a processing fee of 50 EUR. A reservation that has not been cancelled
will be charged for in full. Should the customer arrive late to a
reserved presentation, we shall attempt to accommodate the schedule
accordingly. This may, however, be impossible during busy seasons.
Should the delay or cancellation of a presentation be due to planetarium
staff or equipment, the customer is primarily compensated with a
presentation at an alternative time, a substitutive programme at the
reserved time, or cancelling the invoice of the reserved programme.
Naturally we wish everything goes without any irregularities and
there should never be need to enact these terms.
