Serious humble brag there Doc

Not trying to humble brag. Juat want to know the best options. I have not been to the Sphere.

From what I've heard, you need to decide whether you are there to look at the performers or the screen. If the former, go Lower deck, if the latter, choose the upper decks.

Unless you want to play with the AI robots there's no need to go "on time".

They make a pretty good marg at that venue.

We sat in the 200 sections. It was great. We bought out tickets 6 months in advance when they went on sale. But look daily if you can. I had tickets in an obstructed section in 110 that I sold on stub hub so I was looking often. No rhyme or reason on ticket prices but if you want to see one of the later shows, they may be more expensive because they may call it quits after that. Do not sit in an obstructed view seat. We got to the arena early and I went to the top of the 400 sections. You can see full screen but the climb to seats may be tough if you are on a lower section of the 400s. Seeing the band is not important as the view of the screen. The sound is great throughout so if you are going to spend the money, get a center section in the 200s or 300s.

Derm,
We saw U2 at the Sphere. It was incredible. You are going to love this.

If you want the full experience, do not buy in section 100. Section 200 overhangs 100 which will block your view looking up depending on where you are in 100.

We did 300 which is roughly midpoint. Gives you the full experience. I have no idea why anyone would want to do ground floor or 100. Defeats the whole purpose of the Sphere.

Thanks. I am thinking of getting first row 200 level.

We saw the Eagles on April 12 at the Sphere in Vegas. It was an awesome experience and concert. We bought seats in section 300 and really enjoyed it. Section 300 gives you the opportunity to take in the full Sphere experience. Friends that went with us had seats in section 100 and were disappointed. The overhangs will partially block the view of the ceiling. We enjoyed the concert and sphere experience so much we bought tickets to see them again in October. We bought our tickets direct from Tickermaster. The first time we bought through Stubhub. I would try to buy them as soon as you can. We bought tickets for the October concert in mid April. You will really enjoy the concert. They play for a solid two hours and perform hit after hit. Enjoy the experience and concert.

200 or 300 sections. Closer to the middle the better, but those are the more expensive seats. I actually checked the day of the Eagles concert we went to, to see what prices were like. There were some seats available at good prices, but not too many. I bought too early I think, and should have waited until 3 weeks or so ahead of time.

We bought middle 300 about 3 weeks out from U2. Not cheap. At all.

Most shocking about it was the Ticketmaster fee. I'm embarrassed to even share what that was but we went for my 50th and it was sort of bucket list so I paid it. Otherwise, never would have paid that.

(Didn't help I bought a new watch while there as well. Most expensive weekend ever.)

Thanks for the replies.

Buy morning of the show. Prices drop significantly. Went to see the Dead about a year ago and sat in the 200's. It was epic.

I thought the concessions were way overpriced for the quality, but that's true everywhere in Vegas. But here's a tip if you're getting food and drinks at the Sphere: the lines get really long really quickly on the ground floor. Take the escalators to the top where the lines are shorter, then go back down to your seat level.

I saw them January 25th. We sat in the 400's and loved it.
