[Luxus Magazine] The Sphere, a reflection of Las Vegas’ extravagance

Not far from the Strip, La Sphère has become one of Las Vegas’ star attractions in just a few months. Inaugurated in 2023, the venue that houses the world’s largest LED screen welcomes a host of artists and takes Sin City into a new events era.

 

In September 2023, Las Vegas added to its collection of buildings with an impressive dome designed by architecture firm Populous. Inside is an immense auditorium seating nearly 19,000, surrounded by a spherical 16K LED screen. This is where the big names in the music world perform, from U2 and Eagles to Dead & Company, John Mayer, and Bobby Weir.

 

An immersive experience for all the senses

 

Initially known as MSG Sphere, the project was announced in early 2018. The Sphere will be built on 7.3 hectares of land, just off the Strip and to the east of the Venetian complex. Architectural firm Populous was responsible for the design and supervised the construction work, which involved hundreds of people. The roof of the 112-metre-high, 157-metre-wide dome required 3,000 tonnes of steel, while the 54,000 m2 surface area is covered by illuminated panels, allowing projected images to be seen from afar.
