If you’ve walked around Energy Solutions Arena to look at the Stockton and Malone statues, head back toward 400 West. You’ll now be facing the west side of The Gateway shopping center, Salt Lake City’s nicest outdoor shopping center. At the corner of 400 West and 100 South is the Clark Planetarium, featuring a domed star theater, an IMAX movie theater, and astronomy-related exhibits.

If you’re planning to visit the Clark Planetarium, it’s a good idea to check the show schedule ahead of time to avoid a long wait for the show you want. Visit the Clark Planetarium website to see the full schedule.
