The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex’s Holidays in Space event returns to the Brevard County attraction on Friday.

The celebratio­n will feature a new, reimagined “kinetic light show” to go with the holiday decor spread throughout the complex.

The production takes place on the Atlantis North Lawn at 5 p.m. nightly. The show will have “jaw-dropping surprises and a rainbow of colors and special effects second only to the planets, comets and stars in the galaxy,” a news release reads.

“It’s an exciting time for space exploratio­n with the recent 60th anniversar­y of NASA, and the upcoming 50th anniversar­y of the moon landing and our holiday season here is designed to share our pride and excitement,” said Therrin Protze, chief operating officer of the visitors complex.

The show will occur nightly from Friday through Dec. 30, with the exception of Dec. 25. That’s five more dates than last year, the attraction says.

Holidays in Space is included in regular admission. Tickets are $57 ($47 for age 3 to 11)

There will also be a holiday-themed kids activity area in the Atlantis West Pavilion from Dec. 26 to Dec. 30.
