2001: A Space Party
Celebrate Yuri's Night at the National Air and Space Museum with a party highlighting humanity's past, present, and future in space. Every year, Yuri's Night marks the anniversary of the flight of first human in space Yuri Gagarin. This year, we're also celebrating the 50th anniversary of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey and the impact the film had on culture and technology. This event will be one of your first chances to visit the immersive art installation The Barmecide Feast, a fully realized, full-scale reflection of the iconic, neo-classical hotel room from the penultimate scene of the film. The evening will also feature access to the Museum, music, special talks, activities, and more!
This is a 21+ event and ticket includes an open bar. Early bird tickets cost $45.
