In a groundbreaking move, Phish, the iconic band known for its unique performances, is set to captivate audiences at Las Vegas’ cutting-edge venue, Sphere.

The four-night residency, scheduled for April 18-21, 2024, promises a never-before-seen audio-visual experience, marking the beginning of a distinctive partnership between Phish and Sphere.

With a rich history spanning four decades, Phish has become synonymous with unparalleled musical diversity and an aversion to repeating shows. Each performance by Phish is a unique masterpiece, and the upcoming shows at Sphere will be no exception, featuring entirely distinct setlists and visuals.

Expressing their anticipation for this collaboration, Trey Anastasio, Phish’s guitarist and vocalist, stated, “From the moment we first heard about Sphere and its potential, we’ve been dreaming up ways to bring our show to this breathtaking canvas. We’re thrilled to present this unique experience to Phish fans.”

Sphere, described as the world’s most cutting-edge venue, boasts next-generation technologies that elevate the concert experience.

With a 160,000 sq. ft. LED display inside the main venue bowl and Sphere Immersive Sound powered by HOLOPLOT, the venue offers a fully immersive visual and auditory environment. The 16K x 16K resolution LED screen stands as the highest resolution LED screen globally.

The ticket request period is currently open, allowing fans to secure their spots until 9 a.m. PT/noon ET on December 11. General public ticket sales commence on December 15 at 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET.

Travel packages, available exclusively via phishatsphere.100xhospitality.com/, will go on sale on December 1 at 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET. The exclusivity of these shows makes securing tickets a unique opportunity for Phish enthusiasts.

Phish, comprising Trey Anastasio, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon, and Page McConnell, has cultivated a dedicated fan community over the years. With a blend of idiosyncratic songcraft, extended improvisation, and immersive live performances, Phish has released 15 studio albums, with the latest being 2020’s Sigma Oasis.

LivePhish and WaterWheel Foundation

In 2002, Phish launched LivePhish, offering high-quality soundboard recordings of every show and 4K live webcasts. LivePhish+, the band’s streaming service, stands as the most successful artist-driven service of its kind.

Phish’s commitment to charitable activities led to the establishment of The WaterWheel Foundation in 1997. This foundation channels the generosity of Phish’s fan community to support various charitable causes.

Beyond musical acts, Sphere has curated a diverse lineup, featuring the works of Turkish-American artist Refik Anadol and director Darren Aronofsky.

The venue’s versatility and ability to showcase a spectrum of performances contribute to its growing reputation.
