Tampa Launches Exciting Taylor Swift Laser Music Show at MOSI
The Museum of Science & Industry (MOSI) in Tampa is set to launch its first-ever laser music show featuring the hits of Taylor Swift. This highly anticipated event is scheduled for May 15, 2025, at 6:30 p.m., in the newly inaugurated Saunders Planetarium & Digital Dome Theatre, which holds the distinction of being the second-largest planetarium in the United States.
The laser show will blend vibrant laser visuals in sync with popular songs from Swift’s diverse musical catalog, including fan favorites like “You Belong with Me” and “Cruel Summer.” The event will also kick off with a live, 10-minute guided star show that explores the wonders of the night sky.
Event Details
Gates for the event will open at 5:30 p.m., with theater doors available for entry at 6:10 p.m. The total duration of the show is projected to be approximately one hour, concluding at 7:30 p.m. Attendees are encouraged to wear clothing inspired by Taylor Swift’s numerous albums and eras, allowing them to immerse themselves fully in the experience. Although singing along is welcomed, dancing within the theater will be discouraged to ensure safety.
In addition to the show, guests can indulge in BBQ from Station House and enjoy a selection of beverages from an on-site full-service bar before the performance begins. However, it’s important to note that food and drinks need to stay outside the theater.
Tickets and Attendance
General admission tickets are available for $10, with a reduced price of $8 for MOSI members. Given the expected demand, ticket availability is limited, and they are likely to sell out quickly. This event marks the start of a new entertainment initiative at MOSI aimed at attracting fans through immersive, engaging experiences.
Future Events
The excitement doesn’t end with the Taylor Swift show. Plans are already underway for future laser music events featuring legendary bands like Queen and Pink Floyd, promising to further expand the planetarium’s offering of interactive musical experiences.
