MSG Sphere , Las Vegas

Architecture studio Populous has created the world's largest spherical structure in Las Vegas, which was lit up for the first time to mark the Fourth of July. The 54,000-square-metre LED screen, named MSG Sphere Las Vegas, was illuminated with visuals of fireworks and the moon as well as other graphics.

The Sphere at 366-feet tall and 516-feet wide will be the largest spherical structure in the world. It will have the highest resolution screen in the world at 19,000 by 13,500 pixels. The Sphere’s dome alone weighs 13,000 tons and has a surface area of 220,000 square feet. It is scheduled to open in 2023 and will be able to accommodate up to 20,000 guests.

When complete, the 160,000 square foot LED display will be bigger than three football fields and will create for audiences a fully immersive visual experience with a resolution 100 times that of modern high-definition televisions. The audio system, with its 170,000 speakers, will also be able to send content to specific guest locations in the Sphere's bowl.

Inside, as part of the venue's immersive experience technology will be an infrasound haptic system that will use deep vibrations to make guests to "feel” the concert or event. Perhaps the hallmark of the venue will be its 580,000-square-foot fully programmable LED exterior, which will provide a showcase for the MSG Sphere's artists and events. The outside of the Sphere will have about 600,000 square feet of programmable lighting.
