Yes, tickets are required to access each MAX POWER theme park. Separate ticketing for each park enables visitors to customize their experience to best fit their interests and schedule. Park tickets are available for purchase by following the links on the MAX POWER event page.
To make the production of this event possible, NASA is working with external collaborators, including Air Dot Show, Space Florida, UP.Summit, Delaware North, and Purpose Entertainment. Because the event relies on the funding and structure provided by these external organizations rather than exclusively using NASA’s federally appropriated budget, ticketing is handled through their external sites so they can cover their costs of producing the event.
Guests can take advantage of complimentary shuttle buses running between all event parks. Parking details and full shuttle schedules will be shared as the event approaches.
To help plan your visit, we will soon release the official MAX POWER event app. You can also email us at: maxpower@mail.nasa.gov.
You may contact nasa-brand-partnerships@mail.nasa.gov with inquiries about collaboration opportunities.
This in-person event is open to U.S. media and digital content creators. Media and creators must apply to attend MAX POWER at https://media.ksc.nasa.gov by the deadline established by NASA’s Office of Communications. NASA’s media accreditation policy is available online.
