When you see a "Pie In The Sky" on the Sphere, it's time to get your free pizza from Pizza Hut.

Since the first time it lit up July 4th 2023 I, as well as a lot of other people in Las Vegas and around the country have been in total awe of the Sphere. It’s just the coolest thing, in my opinion, in Las Vegas.  It’s a groundbreaking entertainment venue, that has quickly established itself as a source of innovation in Las Vegas and we are known for pushing boundaries. From its sleek design to its state-of-the-art technology, the Sphere is not only the coolest place in Las Vegas but also a game-changer in the world of advertising!

It’s seriously cutting-edge technology with the cherry on top being the jaw-dropping entertainment. That’s what The Sphere offers. Take a step inside The Sphere, and you’re transported to spaec where reality and fantasy collide. With U2 just wrapping up it’s residency here, and making space for Phish to play 4 straight shows April 18-21st – you know reality and fantasy will most definetly colide during those shows.

That’s whats inside but what about the outside of the Sphere for all to see and admire for free! It’s fun for us to see but the Sphere is making so much money on those advertising displays.

You can buy an advertisemnt on the Sphere but it’s going to cost you a pretty penny. A day long promotion on the outside will cost you $450,000 a day or you can spend $650,000 for a week. Yes, you read that correctly. The building is 580,000 square feet and has about 1.2 million LED lights. So to light those up it will cost you. But for the amount of people that see your advertisement will hopefully pay for itself. The way it will captivate the audience in ways like no other. Name a cooler form of advertising. Whether it’s promoting a new product, launching a marketing campaign, or simply increasing brand awareness, The Sphere gives a platform that commands attention.

The interior is a marvel of immersive technology, featuring stunning visual displays and interactive experiences that engage all your senses. Whether you’re attending a concert, a sporting event, or a corporate presentation, The Sphere delivers an experience unlike any other. It’s not just in Las Vegas that are loving the Sphere it’s been trending on social media more than a few times because of how cool it is.

If you got the money this is where to spend it for your next ad.  Welcome to the future of entertainment and advertising welcome to The Sphere.

5 Artists We Want To See Play The Sphere In Vegas

After years and millions of dollars, the high-tech entertainment venue that is the Las Vegas Sphere has become “a world-first immersive destination.” The venue first opened in Las Vegas in September 2023, snagging U2 with an ongoing concert residency starting on September 29 and running through March 2. The band’s longtime collaborator and technical director Stefaan “Smasher” Desmedt and technology partner Weka worked together to make the band’s stunning visual imagery in 4K video.

The Future of Entertainment

The Sphere’s LED screen inside the theater is 160,000 square feet, boasting 16,000 pixels by 16,000 pixels — the highest resolution in the world. Also featuring 1,600 speaker panels using spatial audio through the screen without any visible speakers in the auditorium, the venue makes those in attendance fully immersed in sound and visuals. The arena can hold up to 18,600 guests in the auditorium. It is no wonder why the company wants to expand, as it is clearly leading the entertainment industry in the right direction.

Besides U2, rumors of Beyoncé planning a Las Vegas residency at the Sphere swirled after her Super Bowl country album announcement in which she sat atop the glowing globe. Partnering with Verizon in the $50 million advertisement, the “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer tries to break the internet over and over again. Taking on different personas and skills, she opens a lemonade stand, drops a “saxy” album, becomes a Twitch gamer by the handle @IamSlayoncé, a Beyonc-AI double, Bar-Bey, running for “BOTUS,” on top of the Sphere atop a silver horse, and the first woman to launch the first rocket to the first performance in space. The commercial concluded by cryptically teasing the release of “new music,” Beyoncé’s country album, Act II, on March 29th.

According to the Sphere’s website, the immersive venue will host a wide variety of events, including concerts and residencies from the world’s biggest artists, as well as films. Take a look below at five amazing pop artists who would have amazing performances at the Sphere:
