I went to the Sphere this weekend in Vegas, and let me just say that it was, hands down, the most mind blowing live music experience I've ever had the privilege to experience, and that's after having attended hundreds of concerts, including seeing most of our favs.

It's a shame we haven't seen a proper pop act headline yet, as there is so much more potential to take advantage of in that venue, and I get chills just thinking about some of our favs in that venue and what they could do with that technology.

With that said, and putting aside any comments from our favs on doing The Sphere, who do you think has the potential to put on the most cutting edge show there?

I'll start -- After seeing the Confessions II film and going to The Sphere back to back, I honestly think Madonna needs to reconsider and go to the venue herself to be convinced. Her current performance style is getting more limited, but I could totally see her being able to deliver something like this live with multi camera work and integrating it into the visuals behind her. It truly would be unbelievable if she was convinced, and I really think she needs to reconsider the possibility after she does The Confessions Tour II:

Who else?

after witnessing Gaga's MAYHEM ball and seeing her deliver her best vision in an arena tour now i would love to see what she could come up with in a space like the Sphere… it would be iconic just thinking abt it

no one, this venue is hideous and should be destroyed

You've been then? Who did you see and why was the experience so bad?

Miley Cyrus.

Madonna has already talked about the Sphere

https://pagesix.com/2026/06/06/entertainment/madonna-teases-confessions-ii-tour-plans-but-fans-can-forget-about-a-vegas-residency/

From the article:

During a post-screening panel at New York City's Beacon Theatre, moderator Anderson Cooper — who stepped in for Jimmy Fallon after a last-minute scheduling conflict — asked Madonna what's next for her following the release of "Confessions II," which drops July 3.

The question prompted a chorus of fans to loudly encourage the superstar to hit the road again.

But when the conversation turned to the possibility of a residency — specifically at Las Vegas' cutting-edge Sphere venue — Madonna immediately shut down the idea.

"The Sphere is cool, but I don't want to wake up every morning and see Vegas," she quipped to roaring applause.

Madonna or Gaga probably make the most sense given how theatrical their shows are.

Nah, I know, I was at the Q&A. And I hadn't been to The Sphere yet when I heard her answer and was one of the ones who applauded, but now....

I wonder if she's actually been and experienced it herself. Videos do not do it justice at all. You have to experience it for yourself.

I feel like Madonna could actually be convinced if she were to watch a show there.

My best friend went to see U2 show at the Sphere and said the venue is overhyped. I've seen a lot of similar comments online from other concert goers. I hope Gaga never performs there.

She could do something super limited time still

I honestly don't know how someone could feel that way. Maybe the show wasn't near as good as No Doubt's visually?

The sound is absolutely pristine and sounds like listening to a loud stereo at home and you can hear effects all around you. The seats are programmed to vibrate along with effects and beats in the show.

I sat almost dead on center and thought the visuals were near reality bending they were so incredible to see live.

I'm telling you guys, it's not overhyped. I was super skeptical myself.

I could see this. No Doubt only did 18 shows altogether. Madonna could do it after she tours next year. It'd require her to be there 4-5 weeks at most. I'm sure she'd be paid ridiculous amounts of money and the tickets would be a bloodbath, but it'd be worth the prices.

She really could do something completely shapeshifting again live if she used the venue to her full advantage.

I only saw some clips from when Olivia jumped on stage with No Doubt but the stage / huge screen looked really cool. I'm surprised none of the MPGs have booked there yet.

the one that makes sense

At the end of the day, it's still a Vegas residency, so current MPG would avoid as long as possible.

Spice Girls literally I feel like Spicemania could make it visually insane and fitting for their 90s iconography

It was honestly such a gag when she showed up lol

Oh I didn't even know the venue was only for residencies oops

I know Miley would eat, if she decides a Vegas residency is right for her (we prefer a tour tho)

Yeah it's too expensive to make visuals for all that just for one off shows or short runs

Miley would have a panic attack in there and say she feels like a prop

The should do movies there
