Where: Killer Pizza From Mars

Map to Killer Pizza From MarsYuri’s Night is like the St Patrick’s Day or Cinco de Mayo for space. It’s held every year to commemorate the first human in space, Yuri Gagarin on April 12, 1961, and the first Space Shuttle launch on April 12, 1981. It is one day when all the world can come together and celebrate the power and beauty of space and what it means for each of us.

Killer Pizza From Mars is a great place to party; it’s family-friendly, their pizza is really good, and every surface is covered with space photos, movie posters, and spaceship models. Come and have fun with us!

Please RSVP so we know how much pizza to order.
