Few bands in rock music history have reached the level of superstardom (and have maintained the staying power) of Dublin-based band U2. Due to a winning combination of innovative, ever-evolving songwriting, spectacular live shows, and front-man Bono's penchant for political/humanitarian endeavors, U2 have managed to remain an A-list act since emerging onto the music scene with their debut album Boy in 1980. With phenomenal album sales (every album they've released since 1987's The Joshua Tree has hit Billboard's number one spot), a plethora of hit singles ("New Years Day, " "Sunday Bloody Sunday," "Pride," "I Still haven't Found What I'm looking For," "With or Without You," "Mysterious Ways," Beautiful Day," -- and the list goes on) U2 have established themselves as the premier rock band of the 1980s and far beyond. Their sound has evolved from post-punk (guitarist The Edge created a signature sound with his sweeping, delay-heavy guitar work), to arena rock, to blues-inspired rock, to electronic/techno pop and back again. With their 2005 release, How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, U2 treat fans to sounds both classic and new-- reminding us exactly why these Dubliners have managed to become one of the most successful bands in rock history.

Words cannot explain the experience of seeing U2 at the Sphere. It was totally insane.
It has been a long time I have not been amazed and impressed. U2 is a very famous band and I've been listening to their music since 1980. Bono has still his famous voice and The Edge is incredible. The Spere in Las Vegas is marvelous and multiplies your sensations, as you can see the band where they stand on the stage but also on the screen. It seems so real and the show is really really amazing.
Great sound. When you leave the concert you will not have that hiss ringing in your head. Visually, stay of the art. Every other concert stage set out there is now obsolete. Enjoy the show !
Great band and music! This was my 3rd concert of U2. But…2017 was anti-Trump, 2024 was anti-Russia. You guys are musicians…please focus on music!
U2 is as usual a great live performing band, the venue is simply amazing and the show is unique fabulous experience. Love it !!!
U2s performance was amazing and some how it was even better and enhanced by the experience that is The Sphere. I don’t know how I can ever go to another concert after this experience!!
How lucky we were to be able to see the show this way, 30 years after seeing the original your. An amazing blend of art and music. U2 gave a truly heartfelt nod to their music and fans while using the backdrop of Las Vegas to take this concert over the top. What an experience.
Amazing show. Great sounds. Partial view of screen (100 section). Only wish is that they had projected the band on the sides earlier in the show for those of is in the cheap(er) seats. All in all a great show. Bucket list item checked off.
I have seen over 600 concerts in my life and have never experienced anything like the U2 concert at the Sphere. Even when I speak to friends and show them pics from my iPhone it does not even come close to what took place at this event. Unless you are actually there yourself to experience it you will not understand what takes place inside the Sphere. Hoping to see future concerts like this, as the Sphere is currently a one of a kind, but I am sure with the future of AI we will see more venues incorporating this into the concert experience.
I scene u2 many times over the years. You haven’t seen them until you do in the sphere
Don’t wait, grab tickets to U2 before they leave their residency. It’s better than I expected. The graphics, animation, sound and of course U2 are all absolutely incredible. The Sphere is the greatest concert venue in the world. I cannot wait to see another concert there. Any seats are good seats. We were in the 300’s and it was still amazing. U2 is as great as I remembered from my high school and college days. Epic, epic show!!!!
Very easy access to the show with a friendly guiders towards entrance, quick ticket check and security check. Awesome show with superb visuals and sound system, also a vibrating seating chair.
Tickets are very pricey though. If it wasnt my hubbys bday & wasn't my 1st time watching U2, i probably wouldn't want to spend the $$. But was a Very immersive experience at the sphere! It's almost like the artistry competes with the music but just an amazing experience! Your seat vibrates to some of the visuals like an approaching chopper, or to the music! The acoustic sound was great! The art was absolutely beautiful! U2 put on a good set, but would have liked they play more of the older albums for nostalgia.
Never seen and heard a concert of this sound quality ! Amazing
Wish the screens were w all the songs a few songs nothing was happening. Not even close ups on the band. Fairly blah at that point. When graphics were up it was amazing
I ve seen them 6 times before but these one was something else. At there age they still got it. Long live u2!!!!
Great venue and I’ve never seen a show like it. Stunning back drop and a superb venue where you can see the band and also the excellent wall of graphics.
Just a great concert! Personal and incredible energy and the best music! Phenomenal.
I have been following U2 for 40+ years! Absolutely LOVE Them! This was my 5th time! From Boston to California, Utah, Arizona, & BEST Show Ever!! Vegas Baby! The SPHERE is an AMAZING Venue, inside & out!! Magical U2 Show as Always! Sensory Overload for Sure! ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING!!! Another Awesome Bucket List item checked... It will be hard to beat the SPHERE Experience!! LOVE U2!! Living My BEST LIFE!!
An amazing show from U2 and the Sphere did not disappoint. Really enjoy the preshow Dj Car- what and amazing idea and all shows should do this! We had seats that had a very good view of the stage but partially obscured the sphere 360 experience. Most of the sphere effects were visible but some were only on the upper parts of the screen. Didn’t really detract from the experience however- the sound and performance were amazing as were the screen effects.
