To commemorate the anniversary, Planetariums across the world will set the album to visuals. With the help of the latest technology, the idea of a show combining breath-taking views of the solar system and beyond, played out to 42 minutes of THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON in surround sound, has been embraced by the band. NSC Creative have led the visual production efforts, working closely with Pink Floyd’s long time creative collaborator Aubrey Powell from Hipgnosis. Please click here for Planetariums shows details. 

As another special event to mark the anniversary, the Empire State Building in New York City will be illuminated today with the 50th Anniversary logo to commemorate the album’s milestone. The display will kick off at sunset and can be seen throughout New York City, as well as online from the Empire State Building Live Cam.

Italy celebrated the album through a light show, while 500 square metres of Milan’s Duomo square was covered with the album’s iconic prism.
