Take a tour inside the Las Vegas Sphere .the World's Biggest Sphere With 1,4 Million LEDs
The Sphere in Las Vegas has been hailed for setting a new standard in live entertainment - and has smashed several records in the process.
At $2.3 billion, the giant structure which officially opened on September 29 is the costliest venue in Sin City. And measuring 336 feet tall and 516 feet wide, it is the largest spherical structure in the world.
Outside, the frame is wrapped with 1.2 million LED lights which transform it into an enormous, mesmerizing display that's the largest ever made. Inside, a 16K curved screen - which is about 250ft tall and 400ft wide - is one of the highest resolution displays ever made.
Sphere launched with a residency from Irish band U2, whose sell-out shows offered tickets from $400 to $1,450.
Fans were dazzled by the 'mind-blowing' visuals beamed inside the 22,000-seat venue - and reviews said the band was overshadowed by the sheer scale of the cinematic effects.
Other features include 4D capabilities that allow shows to include wind and scent simulation.
The venue will set a new standard for the arena tour, according to industry watchers. Sphere also uses cutting-edge audio technology with 167,000 speakers to deliver headphone-quality sound to every seat.
There are nine interior levels that include VIP areas and boxes, concessions, and a basement club.
Sphere will host U2's U2:UV Achtung Baby Live residency until December 16. On opening night, the legendary rock band, who have won 22 Grammys, performed for two hours.
The structure is a stone's throw from The Strip and accessed through the Venetian. Construction started in 2019 with an initial projected cost of $1.2 billion - but the true cost ballooned to $2.3 billion.
Plans are currently in place to develop a copycat structure in London - but locals there have complained it would blight their surroundings by essentially operating as a massive billboard that can be used to host commercials 24/7.
