The Polaris PJ Party takes place on December 27, 2025, at the Adventure Science Center in Nashville’s Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood. The family-focused evening invites guests to arrive in festive pajamas and take part in winter-themed activities inspired by stargazing and seasonal science.
Following a guided look at Polaris, families move into an interactive winter setting with hands-on science stations centered around snow and cold-weather experiments. Food offerings include hot cocoa topped with liquid nitrogen marshmallows, prepared on site as part of the experience.
The event also includes a photo opportunity with James the penguin and Vladimir the polar bear. Each family receives both a printed and digital keepsake photo as part of admission.
Tickets are discounted for members, with special perks for Explorers Society members, and are available while space lasts.
