“visions fine and sound supreme   essence of a fiery queen   doyens of the paradigm   we will rock you one more time.”   brian may  .

Having first launched their universally acclaimed Rhapsody Tour with 25 epic shows across North America in 2019, Queen + Adam Lambert are bringing their highly acclaimed production, now expanded and updated, back to where it first began. After a 4-year long hiatus, Sir Brian May, Roger Taylor and their exceptional frontman Adam Lambert have announced they will set out on a spectacular North America run this fall. Produced by Live Nation, the tour kicks off on October 4 at Baltimore’s CFG Bank Arena making stops in Toronto, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Dallas, Denver and more before concluding at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. See full routing below. 

Brian May says, “Our last tour featured our most ambitious production ever. So we decided to rip it apart and get even more ambitious. Watch out world.”  

And Adam Lambert says: “I can’t wait to tour North America one more time with the Rhapsody tour alongside the two unbelievably talented legends that are Brian May and Roger Taylor.”

Queen + Adam Lambert’s 150-minute career-spanning set list celebrates the band’s extraordinary back catalogue, lining up wall-to-wall immortal anthems like “We Will Rock You”, “Don’t Stop Me Now”, “Radio Ga Ga”, and “Somebody To Love” alongside classic deep cuts and vintage fan favourites. Featuring a dazzling state-of-the-art stage design, incredible special effects and set pieces, this sense-swamping extravaganza has been blowing critics and fans away the world over. 

As with last year’s UK and European dates, the 2023 North American tour will see Queen + Adam Lambert supported on stage by their regular band members, long-serving Queen keyboard player and musical director Spike Edney, bass guitarist Neil Fairclough and percussionist Tyler Warren.  

Having extensively toured over the last few years, the Rhapsody show is forever evolving. But it remains at heart a tribute to Freddie Mercury’s majestic legacy, a confirmation of Brian and Roger’s undimmed musical prowess, plus a magnificent showcase for Adam’s vocal skills and electrifying stage charisma, all of which adds up to a glorious full-blooded celebration of one of the greatest songbooks in rock history.

TICKETS: Tickets will be available via a general onsale beginning Friday, March 31st at 10AM local time at LiveNation.com .  

MORE ON TICKETS:  

Queen + Adam Lambert appreciate that it is an enormous task to try and stop scalpers from taking advantage of fans wanting to purchase tickets for the tour. In an effort to help minimize resale and keep ticket prices at face value for fans, the band are collaborating with the venues’ ticketing partners to restrict the ability to transfer tickets for The Rhapsody Tour so that they may only be transferred between fans at the original price. 

Fans will still have protection against unforeseen circumstances. Those who purchase tickets and are no longer able to attend their show will be able to sell their tickets at the price they paid using a face value ticket exchange, including the Ticketmaster Face Value Exchange – which is free to use for buyers and sellers. More information on how the Ticketmaster Exchange works is available here . 

Unfortunately, the states of NY, IL, and CO have laws in place which protect ticket scalpers – these laws prohibit artists from being able to restrict the transfer of their tickets to face value exchanges only. For shows in these states, Queen + Adam Lambert strongly encourage fans to only buy or sell tickets to one another on face value exchanges. More information can be found here , with more details to follow in the coming weeks.

Queen + Adam Lambert Unveil North American ‘Rhapsody’ Tour Dates: ‘These Are New Glory Days’

• Bill McGathy’s In De Goot Entertainment, Home to Shinedown and Halestorm, Is in the Groove With an ‘Active’ Roster 2 years ago

“These are kind of new glory days for us,” said Queen guitarist and founding member Brian May, who was literally knighted by King Charles III earlier this month. “It’s nice to think that hopefully there will be the demand for that.” 

But the guitarist, along with founding drummer Roger Taylor and singer Adam Lambert , was on the other side of the Atlantic in Thursday, in New York to announce the group’s 14-show North American leg of its “Rhapsody” tour — its first since 2019 — which runs from Oct. 4 through Nov. 11.

Popular on Variety

Shows on the overseas “Rhapsody” tour dates featured around 25 songs plus four encore numbers, and included the hits “Killer Queen,” “Fat Bottomed Girls, “Another One Bites the Dust, “We Will Rock You / We Are the Champions” and the song with more than 2 billion Spotify streams that lent its title to a film and this tour, “Bohemian Rhapsody.”

Queen promises some deeper cuts on this jaunt. Lambert says, “I’m not sure exactly what we’ll pull out for this one. Look, I would be happy just to show up and do what I was told if that was how it was. But I’ve been really fortunate to work with these two gentlemen who are very collaborative, and we get to all throw ideas in and work things out. I’m really grateful for that it makes me even more invested in it.

It’s been a decade since the group’s first live American concert, though the first time they performed was in 2009 when May and Taylor were guests on the eighth season of “Idol.” May remembers the first actual American concert in Las Vegas in 2013 for the iHeart Music Festival: “It felt so good both internally and from the [crowd] reaction that we thought, ‘My God, this is something we shouldn’t be letting go.’ I think we foresaw some kind of future, didn’t we? But not quite as big as it actually happened. It’s been colossal.” 

Lambert agreed, “I don’t think I would have imagined that it would have been the gift that keeps on giving.”

The current Rhapsody tour features Queen + Adam Lambert’s regular band members, longtime keyboard player and musical director Spike Edney, bass guitarist Neil Fairclough and percussionist Tyler Warren. Founding bassist John Deacon left the band and effectively retired from music following Freddie Mercury’s 1991 death, and chose not to be present at Queen’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.

Despite a 30-year-plus age difference between Lambert, 41, and May, 75 and Taylor, 73, the three have an easy camaraderie that’s evident both onstage and off. Lambert was only three when Queen’s iconic 1985 Live Aid performance rocked the world, but it was something he got to recreate at the Fire Fight fundraiser concert in Sydney, Australia in February 2020, a month before Covid shut down the world.

 As a fan growing up, Lambert was familiar with Queen’s Live Aid footage. “But when it came time to first join the band on stage, I was like, ‘I have to know my stuff’ so I watched as much as I could. Besides Live Aid, one of my favorite things was Montreal concert where Freddie was running around in a pair of itty bitty white shorts and no shoes,” Lambert says. “I just I remember seeing that and going ‘This guy’s amazing.’ He was so free and ridiculous and just full of joy and I’ve been so inspired by that spirit. I try to approach shows with that same humor…”

“And shorts?” Taylor quipped.

“Not the shorts for me — Freddie had much better legs,” Lambert concluded.

A general on sale date for the Queen + Adam Lambert  U.S. tour is March 31, and in light of exorbitant ticket prices and “dynamic pricing,” the band stated in a release that “In an effort to help minimize resale and keep ticket prices at face value for fans, the band are collaborating with the venues’ ticketing partners to restrict the ability to transfer tickets for the Rhapsody tour so that they may only be transferred between fans at the original price.”

Queen + Adam Lambert Announce 2023 North American ‘Rhapsody’ Tour Dates

By Andy Greene

Andy Greene

Queen + Adam Lambert are bringing their Rhapsody Tour back to North America for their first shows on this side of the Atlantic since 2019. The tour kicks off Oct. 4 in Baltimore, Maryland, and wraps up Nov. 11 in Los Angeles, California.

“This tour has lots of new bells and lots of new whistles,” Queen guitarist Brian May tells Rolling Stone . “We’ve evolved as performers, I think. We’ve stepped up our game. We have better chemistry than ever. We understand each other better than ever, and we feel more free in the way that we interpret stuff. We’re very happy with it. There’s lots of new production and stuff we want to excite you with.”

The set will focus on Queen classics like “Another One Bites The Dust,” “Somebody to Love,” and “Radio Ga Ga.” But they sprinkled in deep cuts like “Tear It Up” and “A King of Magic” in Europe last year, and hope to keep doing that.

“This show has evolved since its been in America since we’ve taken it around the world,” adds drummer Roger Taylor. “It’s quite a different show in a way, while retaining all the big hits, which so many people want to hear.”

Ticket sales begin Friday, March 31. In an effort to keep prices low and reduce scalping, the band is going to utilize the Ticketmaster Face Value Exchange, which makes it impossible to sell tickets for more than face value. “It’s an experiment,” says May. “We got sick of seeing our fans get ripped off by scalpers. We’re hoping this works out.”

Editor’s picks

The 250 greatest guitarists of all time, the 500 greatest albums of all time, the 50 worst decisions in movie history, every awful thing trump has promised to do in a second term.

Queen + Adam Lambert first played together on the 2009 finale of American Idol. They began gigging together in 2012, and have stayed on the road consistently over the past decade. Filling in for Freddie Mercury was a daunting task at first for Lambert, but he’s grown very comfortable with the job over the years.

“I feel less anxiety now,” he says. “I’ve matured as a performer. I trust myself a bit more. I will say that when the movie [ Bohemian Rhapsody ] came out, we had all these new fans, and many of them were young, I felt this little pang of, ‘Oh, these are new fans that haven’t been to a show yet.’ I needed to prove myself again, which is good. It keeps me on my game.”

The 2018 movie was an enormous success that grossed $911 million and won four Academy Awards, including Best Actor for star Rami Malek. It ends at Live Aid in 1985, and there’s been scattered talk over the past few years of a sequel that would chronicle Mercury’s final years.

“We need a script,” says May. “That’s what it comes down to. It took us 12 years to get the script for Bohemian Rhapsody , and get the right team in place. I’m not anxious. I think if the right thing comes along, it might work. We have our wonderful producer, Graham King, on it. It’s a possibility. If the right planets align, it might happen.”

“He would be welcome,” adds Taylor. “But I don’t think it’s going to happen.”

At the moment, this next leg of the Rhapsody Tour is just 14 shows, but it’s very possible they’ll tack on more. “People are buying tickets,” says Lambert. “And hey, we like performing.”

How Ticketing Works For Queen + Adam Lambert’s The Rhapsody Tour

• Copied to Clipboard

After a  four-year-long hiatus, Sir Brian May, Roger Taylor and their exceptional frontman Adam Lambert have announced they will set out on a spectacular North America run this fall.

ONSALE: Tickets will be available via a general onsale beginning Friday, March 31 at 10 A.M. local venue time HERE .

As Queen + Adam Lambert announced, they have also set terms in place to minimize scalping and get tickets into the hands of fans at the prices they set. Here is some important info:

• TICKETS WILL HAVE RESTRICTED TRANSFER : Ticketmaster will be following the artist’s terms and any tickets sold on our platform will be non-transferable to prevent tickets from being resold for a profit. (Please note: This does not apply to tickets purchased for tour dates in New York, Illinois, and Colorado, where state laws prohibit artists from restricting resale.)
• TICKETS CAN ONLY BE RESOLD AT ORIGINAL PRICE : To give fans flexibility if their plans change, the tour will utilize Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange, which allows fans to sell their tickets for the price they paid, including fees and taxes. The exchange is free to use for buyers and sellers. That way, if a fan can’t make the show, they have a way to get their money back while making another fan’s night.

The Face Value Exchange will be launched at a later date, and we will keep this page updated with more details in the coming weeks.

What does it mean if a ticket has restricted transfer?

If you can no longer attend a show, you can sell your tickets for the price you paid, including fees and taxes, using Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange. Important note: Fans should not attempt to purchase tickets from sites outside of those made available on the Face Value Exchange. Learn more about how to avoid fake “speculative” tickets for live events.

What is Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange?

How do i list tickets for sale on the face value exchange.

Here’s how it works:

• Sign in to My Account, click My Tickets then select See Details next to your event.
• Click the Sell button.
• Choose to list one or all your tickets for the price you paid.
• Tell us how you’d like to get paid.
• Review your listing and you’re all set.

If I sell my tickets on the Face Value Exchange, will I get back the fees I paid when I purchased my tickets?

Forget karaoke — starting in October, you can sing along with the band that brought classics like “Bohemian Rhapsody” to the world.

After a four-year hiatus, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group Queen is returning to the road with lead singer Adam Lambert for their 14-concert ‘Rhapsody Tour’ that will send them to arenas all over North America from Oct. 4 through Nov. 11.

On the brief tour, the band that inspired the Oscar-nominated film “Bohemian Rhapsody” will bring all the hits like “Under Pressure,” “Fat Bottomed Girls,” “We Will Rock You,” “Another One Bites The Dust,” “Somebody To Love” and so many more to the Big Apple when they play New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Oct. 12.

And don’t worry — the ‘Rhapsody Tour’ isn’t just a rehash of Queen’s greatest hits.

“This is about giving (fans) a show that feels fresh,” singer Adam Lambert said in an interview with Billboard . “We are keenly aware of what the favorites are and we try to include the big hits every night — they have a lot of hits, so it’s a lot to choose from.”

Need tickets to hear fresh versions of “We Are The Champions,” “You’re My Best Friend” and “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” now?

Not a problem.

Although inventory isn’t available on Ticketmaster until Friday, March 31, fans who want to ensure they have tickets ahead of time can purchase on sites like Vivid Seats before tickets are officially on sale.

Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

Queen 2023 tour schedule

A complete calendar including all tour dates, venues and links to the cheapest tickets available for each ‘Rhapsody Tour’ concert can be found below.

Queen band members

There may never have been a more high-profile lead singer replacement for a band than Adam Lambert assuming Freddie Mercury’s place back in 2011.

Who’s playing behind the 41-year-old former “American Idol” finalist though?

Well, original members drummer Roger Taylor and recently knighted guitarist Sir Brian May are still around 53 years after the band formed in 1970.

“These are kind of new glory days for us,” said May in an interview with Variety .

They’ll be joined by Spike Edney on keyboards and rhythm guitar, Neil Fairclough will handle bass and Tyler Warren plays percussion and drums.

Edney, Fairclough and Warren also provide backup vocals.

Queen set list

Not many bands have a three-disc Greatest Hits album.

Queen does though.

That being said, it’s not easy to distill a legendary catalog into a single concert — classics like “Flash” might not make the cut.

Based on past gigs, here’s what you can expect to hear on this tour based on their 2019 U.S. concert set lists.

01.) “Now I’m Here”

02.) “Seven Seas of Rhye” 03.) “Keep Yourself Alive”

04.) “Hammer to Fall”

05.) “Killer Queen”

06.) “Don’t Stop Me Now”

07.) “In the Lap of the Gods… Revisited”

08.) “Somebody to Love”

09.) “I’m in Love With My Car”

10.) “Bicycle Race”

11.) “Another One Bites the Dust”

12.) “I Want It All”

Queen and Adam Lambert Extend 2023 U.S. Tour Dates in Select Cities

by Tina Benitez-Eves April 1, 2023, 9:00 am

By popular demand, and sold-out shows, Queen and Adam Lambert have extended their forthcoming Rhapsody Tour with additional dates in select U.S. cities.

Videos by American Songwriter

The 22-date Rhapsody Tour, which follows Queen and Lambert’s successful U.K. and European tour in 2022, will kick off on Oct. 4 at the CFG Bank Arena in Baltimore, Maryland with stops across the U.S. before wrapping up in Los Angeles at the BMO Stadium on Nov. 12. Second dates have been added to New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Baltimore after the initial shows in these cities sold out.

“Our last tour featured our most ambitious production ever,” said Brian May in a statement, “so we decided to rip it apart and get even more ambitious. Watch out world.”

Lambert added, “I can’t wait to tour North America one more time with the Rhapsody Tour alongside the two unbelievably talented legends that are Brian May and Roger Taylor.”

Backed by a state-of-the-art designed stage with special effects, Queen and Lambert will be joined by keyboardist and musical director Spike Edney, bassist Neil Fairclough and percussionist Tyler Warren for a 150-minute set celebrating the band’s catalog of hits, including “Radio Ga Ga,” and “Somebody To Love’,” “We Will Rock You,” and “Don’t Stop Me Now,” along with deeper cuts and other fan favorites.

This tour may also be the final outing together for Queen and Lambert, according to May.

“There’s a strong possibility that we’ll be going out together again,” said May in a 2022 interview. “We’re talking about that as you and I speak, making those decisions. Now, it does get to be more of a decision as you get older. I’m not 35 anymore, and leaving home for two months is not easy. But we feel as if we’re all fit and well, that we’d like to go out there one more time. It would probably be in the United States in 2023 at some point.”

Earlier in March 2023, May was knighted by King Charles III nearly a year after Queen and Adam Lambert performed at the  Platinum Jubilee  at Buckingham Palace to celebrate the late  Queen Elizabeth II ‘s 70-year reign.

May also recently hinted that he wants to work on a sequel to the 2018 Queen biopic   Bohemian Rhapsody .

“We’ve been talking about it,”  said May . “I felt proud of it, and the people who played us were just phenomenal. It’s so tempting to do the sequel. It would be worth it just to work with those boys again.”

‘Fever To Tell’: Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ Genre-Defying Debut Album

‘mardi gras’: over and out from creedence clearwater revival.

Queen + Adam Lambert have come a long way since first sharing a stage for the American Idol finale in May 2009. Since then, the critically acclaimed creative partnership has proved to be a global phenomenon, having played over 150 shows in all corners of the world. Filling stadiums and festivals, Queen + Adam Lambert’s awe-inspiring show has drawn across-the board rave notices.

Now, announcing this specially crafted The Crown Jewels show, Queen’s Brian May said: “We’re ready to take on the ultimate challenge … to dazzle Vegas!!”

Band mate Roger Taylor was equally as enthusiastic, saying he is: “Looking forward to rocking the Strip,” singing the praises of “the audaciously and phenomenally talented Adam Lambert.”

Lambert added: “I’m so excited to help share The Crown Jewels with the Strip. You’ll be humming them all night!”

Just as the original Queen scaled unprecedented heights and shattered audience records, so have Queen + Adam Lambert. Their first full live show, played in Europe in 2012, saw the band make a spectacular debut in front of half a million people in Kiev. More recent shows in Brazil, Portugal and Japan have regularly drawn audiences of up to 80,000 for a single concert.

But Queen + Adam Lambert are not a band to rest on their laurels. In the summer of 2017, they toured North America with a brand new state-of-the-art production specifically tailored to celebrate the 40th anniversary of News Of The World , which was originally released in October 1977 and remains Queen’s biggest-selling studio album to date. The tour extended across Europe and the UK through to the end of 2017, followed by Australia and New Zealand in early 2018.

It was North American audiences that first truly embraced Queen + Adam Lambert, paving the way to worldwide arena-filling success. Playing their first ever full tour with 24 shows across the U.S. and Canada in the summer of 2014, this generation-spanning super group not only sold out every date, but were later crowned Band of the Year at the 10th annual Classic Rock, Roll of Honor awards and Best Live Band of the Year in Ultimate Classic Rock’s reader’s poll. From that point on, there was no stopping the revitalized Queen machine and their incandescent new front man.

Queen + Adam Lambert’s magnificent 2018 live show has been custom tailored for the band by some of the world’s most cutting-edge creative talents. Responsible for design and production is Ric Lipson from Entertainment Architects Stufish Productions, renowned worldwide for their innovative work with artists such as Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, and U2, as well the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Making use of over 300 moving lights during the show is the highly acclaimed lighting designer Rob Sinclair, who has illuminated tours for major artists including Adele, Peter Gabriel and Kylie Minogue. The production’s genuinely eye-popping laser elements are the work of ER Productions, behind both the opening and closing ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympics and seen by over 900 million people worldwide.

“The stage production, theatrics, band performance and audience reaction is probably the best that I have ever had the pleasure to witness. The unparalleled champions of arena rock,” wrote the critic of the UK newspaper Daily Express .

The Killers and Queen + Adam Lambert Headline 2023 United States Grand Prix Weekend

Rock icons The Killers and Queen + Adam Lambert will headline the 2023 United States Grand Prix weekend at Circuit of The Americas on October 20-22.

Following on from a record-breaking crowd in 2022, the 2023 United States Grand Prix is set to be one of the best-attended Formula 1 races of the season once more. In the build up to the race weekend, which is set to take place on October 20-22, race organisers have confirmed the headline acts who’ll perform on the Germania Insurance Super Stage at the 2023 United States Grand Prix.

American rock band The Killers will take to the stage on Friday October 20, while rock royalty Queen + Adam Lambert will headline the Super Stage after qualifying on Saturday October 21. DJ Tiësto will also be performing as part of the Post-Race Celebration after the race on Sunday October 22.

All 2023 United States Grand Prix ticket holders receive free entry to the concerts, while upgrades offering access closer to the stage are expected to be available at a later date.

The Killers will perform on Friday evening

Formed in Las Vegas in 2001, The Killers have become one of the biggest rock bands of the 21 st century. Having sold close to 30 million records, The Killers’ 20-year career has spawned hits such as Mr Brightside , Human and Somebody Told Me . 

The Killers will head to the 2023 United States Grand Prix having performed a string of festival dates and stadium appearances across the summer.

The band will headline the Super Stage after the on-track action has finished on Friday October 20. The Killers have plenty of past experience of performing at Formula 1 events. Among their previous performances are the 2018 Singapore Grand Prix, the 2019 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix plus, most recently, a special performance as part of F1’s Las Vegas Grand Prix launch party event in November 2022. 

Queen + Adam Lambert to headline Saturday night

One of the world’s biggest-selling rock bands will headline the 2023 United States Grand Prix. Famed for hits like Bohemian Rhapsody, Don’t Stop Me Now and We Are The Champions , Queen bring their awe-inspiring live show to Circuit of The Americas for a special performance on Saturday October 21.

Founding Queen members Roger Taylor and Brian May will be joined by Adam Lambert, who has performed with the band since 2011. Queen + Adam Lambert have enjoyed continued success over the past decade, having headed out on multiple worldwide arena tours.

Like The Killers, Queen + Adam Lambert have also previously performed at a Formula 1 weekend. They headlined at the 2016 Singapore Grand Prix.

Tiësto performing post-race, plus more acts

In recent years, DJ performances after the race have become common at the United States Grand Prix. 2023 is no different, with Tiësto taking to the stage at the Germania Insurance Ampitheater after the race on Sunday October 22.

The Dutch DJ, whose hits include Red Lights , Wasted and Lay Low , will perform as part of COTA’s “Post-Race Celebration”. 

The Germania Insurance Ampitheater is located in the Fanzone, near the Grand Plaza, close to Turns 18-19. 

There’s music from plenty more acts over the weekend, with a line-up of almost 20 bands and artists performing across four stages as part of The American Soundtrack, a specially curated series of performances showcasing national and international talent. The full line-up can be found on the Circuit of The Americas website . 

2023 United States Grand Prix tickets still available

Tickets for the 2023 United States Grand Prix went on sale in December 2022. A limited number of grandstand seats and general admission tickets remain available in our ticket shop . Last year’s event was a sell-out, attracting 450,000 fans over the race weekend – one of the biggest F1 weekend attendances on record. A similar number of fans are expected to attend in 2023.

Ticket packages from F1 Experiences – F1’s official ticket package partner – are also available . These exclusive packages offer insider access at the 2023 United States Grand Prix, including all-inclusive hospitality, Formula 1 paddock tours and driver appearances.

In addition to the Formula 1 on-track action and the trackside concerts, F1 Academy – F1’s all-new female-only feeder series – will race over the 2023 United States Grand Prix weekend. Further details about attending COTA for the 2023 United States Grand Prix can be found in our extensive travel guide .

8 thoughts on “The Killers and Queen + Adam Lambert Headline 2023 United States Grand Prix Weekend”

does my race weekend ticket grant me access to the concerts, or would concern entry be purchased separately?

Yes, all ticket holders get access to the concerts if their race ticket is valid on that day. Closer to race weekend, it will be possible to buy a concert upgrade to get into an enclosure that’s closer to the stage

Who is in concert on Sunday afternoon?

Not been announced yet. The concerts after the race normally take place at the Germania Insurance Amphitheater, not the COTA Superstage.

Where does the band perform? Am I in the same seats for the concert as I am for the Grand Prix?

The band performs on the Super Stage, between Turns 11 & 12. Check the map here . The Turn 9 bleachers have a distant view of the stage, but everyone else just watches on the lawn in front of the stage.

Is there any seating available for the concerts? Can we bring chairs?

No seating available. Bringing a collapsible camping chair is allowed

Las Vegas Sphere: Ultimate guide to seats, prices and how to see Dead Forever in 2024

Competing for attention in Las Vegas with neon signs, billboards and mega-resorts that resemble European palaces and Egyptian pyramids is no easy feat.

But an eight-month-old orb with a talent for shapeshifting is stealing a little of their thunder.

Sphere at The Venetian Resort , an entertainment venue that opened September 2023 just off the Las Vegas Strip , has garnered much attention since its debut for its immersive audio-visual experiences.

See the 366-foot-tall venue from the outside at night and it captivates people for its ability to project images from its exterior shell (also called the Exosphere) containing 580,000 square feet of LED lights, whether it's the Earth, the surface of Mars, a blinking eye, or an emoji. It developed a reputation for causing traffic gridlock since the projections began last year during the Fourth of July.

Inside, the venue's 160,000-square-foot display with 16K by 16K resolution displays immersive visuals, backed by the world's largest beamforming audio system, according to The Venetian .

If you're planning a trip to Las Vegas, check our guides on the best ways to get there from Phoenix , free things to do , which hotels offer free parking , and how to check for bedbugs in hotels .

If you can't get to Vegas just yet, the newly opened Caesars Republic Scottsdale hotel and upcoming VAI Resort in Glendale offer the luxury of Vegas in the Valley, though neither has a casino.

Here's everything to know about the Las Vegas Sphere.

What is the Sphere in Las Vegas?

Described on its website as "a next-generation entertainment medium that is redefining the future of live entertainment," Sphere is an immersive venue that uses haptics (seats that can move and vibrate), atmospheric simulations and visual effects to "transport audiences to places real and imagined."

The Sphere Experience, the main attraction inside the Sphere, is a two-part attraction. The first part, guided by a humanoid robot called Aura, includes a 360-degree avatar capture and a 50-foot-high holographic installation.

The second part is a viewing of an immersive film called "Postcard From Earth" by director Darren Aronofsky on Sphere's largest, highest-definition screen. "Postcard From Earth" is described as part nature documentary, part science fiction movie.

Sphere has also hosted concerts, with U2 inaugurating it with a 40-show residency that launched on Sept. 29, 2023. Sporting events are coming as well: UFC President Dana White said in February that he booked Sphere for UFC 306, scheduled for Sept. 14, 2024.

Where is the Sphere in Las Vegas?

Sphere is at the intersection of Sands Avenue and Koval Lane, just off the Las Vegas Strip and about 1 mile east of The Venetian.

Its address is 255 Sands Ave., Las Vegas.

Who owns the Sphere in Las Vegas?

Sphere is owned by Sphere Entertainment Co., which was spun off from Madison Square Garden Entertainment in April 2023.

Can you go inside the Vegas Sphere?

Yes, but it will cost you. Every guest must have a ticket for a show to enter the Sphere.

How many people does the Sphere hold? 

Sphere can seat 17,500 people and has a standing room capacity of 20,000, according to The Venetian .

Do the seats move in the Sphere? 

Of the Sphere's 17,500 seats, 10,000 of them are described as "haptic seats," or seats that are capable of moving and vibrating.

Where are the bad seats in the Sphere? 

Any seats with an overhang of upper levels will obstruct the view of the stage and/or screen.

USA Today's 10Best suggests avoiding certain seats in the far right and far left sections in the 100 level, where rows 30 and higher are completely obstructed by the overhang.

The 200, 300 and 400 levels offer the best seats.

How long does the Sphere Experience last? 

The Sphere Experience lasts just under two hours, with 60 minutes for the interactive experiences and 50 minutes for the "Postcard From Earth" film.

How long will U2 be at the Sphere?

U2 played the final show of its U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere residency on March 2, 2024.

Who is performing at the Sphere in 2024? 

After U2's residency ended, the jam band Phish became the second music act to play Sphere. Their four-show residency ran April 18-21.

Members of Dead & Company, a spinoff of the Grateful Dead featuring former members Bob Weir and Mickey Hart along with singer and guitarist John Mayer, will perform a 24-show Sphere residency called Dead Forever. The residency, which runs from May 16 to July 13, will begin a year after their final tour made a stop in Phoenix .

How much does it cost to go to Sphere Vegas?

It depends on the show and what day you plan to visit.

The Sphere Experience starts at $79 per person during the week and $99 per person on weekends.

Tickets for Dead & Company's Dead Forever residency start at $145 per person.

Is the Sphere worth going to?

Sphere has attracted an assortment of highly positive and highly negative reviews from travelers.

It has a user rating of 4.3 out of 5 stars on Google. One user, Phillipe Beaumier , called Sphere "a once in a lifetime experience" and described the immersive audio and visual as "so incredible, you feel like you are part of the travel!"

Tripadvisor users gave Sphere more mixed reviews, with an overall rating of 3 out of 5 stars. Most of its bad reviews were critical of the message of the "Postcard From Earth" film in the Sphere Experience.

A one-star review from a Tripadvisor user named Kathryn W. expressed disappointment with the Sphere Experience's humanoid robots and how "a couple of robots that are comparable to (Amazon's virtual assistant) Alexa can't answer a question." Kathryn added that the moving seats "could be mistaken for someone kicking the back of your chair."

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Vegas PDA Will Have You Feeling So High School

Taylor swift and travis kelce shared an intimate moment while at patrick mahomes' foundation gala in las vegas, with the tight end planting a few kisses on the grammy winner's shoulder..

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce can't fight the alchemy.

In fact, the Grammy winner and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end 's chemistry was undeniable during their recent outing to teammate Patrick Mahomes ' 15 and Mahomies Foundation gala in Las Vegas April 27. In footage posted to social media from the quarterback's event, Travis can be seen coming up behind Taylor to plant several kisses on her shoulder, leaving the Tortured Poets Department singer with a big smile on her face.

And this wasn't the only sweet moment that the pair shared at the event. After all, Travis, 34, gave Taylor, also 34, a sweet shoutout during the charity auction.

"I just talked to my significant other," he told the group of attendees, which included Brittany Mahomes . "We might have one other auction item that wasn't on the docket. Has anybody heard of the Eras tour ?"
