Experience the Sphere & Future Tech

The Las Vegas Sphere has redefined entertainment with its colossal Exosphere—the largest LED screen on Earth. While the show inside is spectacular, the exterior light show is a 24/7 phenomenon best viewed from a vantage point that captures its massive scale. Our curated collection of experiences offers the ultimate ways to witness this architectural marvel, from adrenaline-pumping helicopter flights that soar directly past the glowing orb to guided ground tours that find the perfect photo angles. Beyond the Sphere, we connect you with Las Vegas's premier immersive technology attractions like the ARTE Museum and Illuminarium, ensuring your trip is filled with cutting-edge visual wonder.

Highlight of our trip!

The helicopter flight over the Sphere was absolutely mind-blowing. Seeing the LED animations from above is the only way to do it. Worth every penny!

Amazing night view

The night flight was short but sweet. The pilot made sure both sides of the helicopter got a great view of the Sphere and the Bellagio fountains.

Scary but cool

I did the SkyJump at the STRAT. You get a crazy view of the Sphere right before you jump! terrifying but amazing.

Great alternative

Tickets to the Sphere show were sold out, so we did the Illuminarium instead. My kids loved the space exhibit. A great tech experience.
