The best new attractions in Las Vegas for 2023

The huge MSG Sphere is the most dramatic change to the Las Vegas skyline, a massive 336-ft dome just off the Strip by the Venetian hotel and casino. The dome has been under construction for five years, since before the pandemic, at a cost of almost $2bn. Once it is completed this year it will be the largest spherical structure in the world, covered in hundreds of electronic panels broadcasting 16K video. The Sphere will be an events and entertainment venue, with a capacity of up to 20,000. Inside, shows will make use of ‘4D’ features such as adjustable smells and temperatures to create immersive experiences. Although it had an original opening date of 2021, delays mean that the venue will finally open in September of this year. Currently, the first confirmed act to perform at the Sphere is U2, however the structure’s creators plan to host up to 6 residencies for top artists each year.
