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.

A bus ticket is required to ride from the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex to UP.Summit and is included with your ticket purchase. Between UP.Summit and the air show, free shuttles run continuously all day. Just head to the nearest shuttle pick-up sign and hop on.
