🌀 Postcard from Earth

Best for: Nostalgia lovers, families, and anyone curious to see how timeless stories are reimagined in The Sphere’s format.

🎸 Eagles – Live in Concert

The legendary rock band has launched a special Sphere residency, turning “Hotel California” and “Take It Easy” into larger-than-life anthems. The Sphere’s acoustics are flawless, and the visuals transport you from desert highways to dreamlike skies. This is the Eagles—amplified.

Insider Tip: Choose center seats about halfway up the venue for the ultimate sound-visual balance.

🍽️ Where to Dine Before the Show

You’ll want to arrive early—and not on an empty stomach. These top-rated restaurants near The Sphere (and within its closest luxury resorts) combine convenience with unforgettable cuisine:

🍝 Mizumi at Wynn Las Vegas

Award-winning Japanese fare in a garden setting with waterfall views. Try the miso black cod or robatayaki grilled skewers.

🍷 Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano at The Venetian

Authentic Northern Italian dishes made with house-made pasta and traditional flair. The tagliatelle bolognese is a must.

🥩 Delmonico Steakhouse at The Venetian

Chef Emeril Lagasse’s flagship Vegas restaurant serves up hand-cut steaks and classic Southern hospitality in a sophisticated space.

Pro Tip: Book a table 90 minutes before your show start time to allow for a relaxed pre-show meal.

🛏️ Where to Stay Near The Sphere
