If you’re lurking about Sin City then you still have time to make to the New Year’s Eve Party at Sphere Las Vegas! They have programmed their exterior (the world’s largest LED screen) with a custom show to ring in 2025. This dazzling display will include a celebration of major cities around the world as different time zones approach midnight, culminating with Sphere serving as Las Vegas’ official countdown to 2025!
Sphere Las Vegas New Year’s Eve Celebration will kick off at 5:00am on December 31st, when Sydney, Australia welcomes 2025. Throughout the day, the Exosphere will display dynamic imagery with countdowns ahead of global cities – including Tokyo, Abu Dhabi, London, Buenos Aires, New York, Chicago and Denver – ringing in the New Year. The final 30-second countdown to midnight in Las Vegas will serve as the city’s official countdown to “Making Vegas Memories.”
Immediately after the clock strikes midnight, the Sphere will showcase content from Afterlife Presents Anyma ‘The End of Genesys,’ which will play inside Sphere on New Year’s Eve. At the same time, pyrotechnic shows will be launched from the rooftops of nine resort properties across the Las Vegas Strip. This is also when Sphere Las Vegas will unveil a special Exosphere performance. The Exosphere will also feature art from self-described “psychedelic math artist” UON Visuals – the latest artist to create art exclusively for the Exosphere as part of Sphere’s XO Art program.
“Sphere is a global landmark, and we’re excited to be sharing New Year’s Eve with our fans around the world through our Exosphere show,” said Jen Koester, President and Chief Operating Officer, Sphere. “New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas is one of the world’s marquee celebrations, and we’re proud to be working with the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, Lexus, and Anyma to ring in 2025 as only Sphere can.”
Fans celebrating both on the ground in Las Vegas and watching online via XO Stream, the Exosphere’s live stream, can tune in to the custom content starting at 5 a.m. PT on Tuesday, 31 December. Since the Exosphere was first illuminated on July 4, 2023, Sphere Las Vegas has captured worldwide attention for its impactful visuals. At 580,000 square feet, the Exosphere consists of approximately 1.2 million LED pucks. Each puck contains 48 individual LEDs, with each diode capable of displaying more than one billion different colors – creating a vivid landmark on the Las Vegas skyline.
