What do you picture when thinking of Las Vegas? It’s likely gambling, spectacular fine dining, and unmatched entertainment opportunities.

The city is iconically known as the Entertainment Capital of the World. And it’s no surprise that Las Vegas quickly embraces new tech and the innovative opportunities it brings to improve the things that already make the destination great. These initiatives inspired the creation of the Sphere.

The Sphere is a tech marvel, the latest hub for entertainment. It’s redefining the industry and taking the musical experience to a new level for the audience. The Sphere is the beginning of an era. By integrating extraordinary tech, an iconic rock band, and some creative geniuses, the creators have engineered a state-of-the-art debut show series that the world can’t ignore.

The Sphere’s Cutting-Edge Technology

The Sphere’s unprecedented tech is breaking more than one world record! It’s the largest spherical structure on the planet, measuring 5.7M cubic feet in the main atrium. The LED screen comprises 268,435,456 video pixels, which is unprecedented. With the help of this tech, the screen’s resolution is equivalent to 72 HD televisions combined, meaning every minute of content is the same as one hour of streaming television. The Sphere’s visual display wraps around the audience and expands over the seats with a 16K by 16K resolution. The 4D tech lets the audience experience visuals like never before.
