The MSG Sphere is a futuristic entertainment venue that is currently under construction in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is being built by Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. (MSG) and is expected to be completed in 2023. The world’s largest spherical structure (at 366 feet tall and 516 feet wide) was teased in a February Super Bowl ad, shown blowing away U2 and fans. Finally we have a date for its grand opening! The band officially announced five fall dates for “U2: UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere” which will officially open the $2 billion venue beginning Sept. 29. The long-anticipated unveiling of the engineering marvel will mark the Irish band’s first concert outings in four years.
The venue is a 17,600-seat arena and features a state-of-the-art sound system and an ultra-high-definition video projection system, which will allow for immersive, 360-degree audio and visual experiences. The Sphere will also have advanced acoustics, which will allow for high-quality sound to be projected throughout the entire venue. This means that no matter where a person is sitting, they will be able to experience clear and crisp audio.The exterior will be covered in a fully programmable LED exterior that will be capable of displaying high-definition visuals and immersive audio experiences. Who do you think will be the first electronic artist to play at this new and exciting stage?
