What strikes one upon entering the Sphere in Las Vegas is its enormity. Even walking past concession stands and such on the way to seats, it’s hard not to look up. Given that it’s dwarfed by casinos on The Strip from the outside, it’s especially surprising.
But the most striking feature is when the show begins for Dead and Co. The visuals behind the stage make it look like a huge wall is opening to the outside. Spectators are transported to Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco before enjoying the amazing feeling that you’re being lifted up and flying through space. There is a reason the Sphere is beyond compare in the world.
Other great spots in Vegas: HaSalon by chef Eyal Shani has insanely good buttery pasta, and the New York sirloin at Wolfgang Puck’s Cut should not be missed.
