Sin City is always changing… just ask the Tropicana or the Mirage. Now, we have heard whispers of at least two new projects at the Las Vegas Sphere. If these rumors are accurate, then the venue should continue to bring in audiences for the next several months, even without the headlining live entertainment events they have already locked in.

You will only read this scoop on our website, and perhaps the website we stole it from, Vital Vegas. We do hope they’re not angry with us. After all, imitation (and curation) is the sincerest form of flattery.And since they have all the good, inside information what else are we to do?

The first rumor of the new projects at the Las Vegas Sphere is easy to see happening, as it involves the band U2. They just wrapped up their residency in February of this year, after all, so the scoop is an hour long film of the band in all its high definition glory, most likely shot during their performances.

A U2 experience seems like it would be a perfect fit for the venue, as the band’s residency was well-received. Surely anyone who missed them in Vegas would love the chance to experience footage filmed during their shows, possibly integrate with graphics woven together to showcase Sphere’s capabilities.

The next rumor seemed odd to us at first, but upon reflection may actually be pretty cool. You see, the second of these new projects at the Las Vegas Sphere would focus on the movie classic the Wizard of Oz. After all, it was the “wow” film of its day nearly 100 years ago, so why not give it another go? And hey, maybe this time it will be properly set to the Dark Side of the Moon album like it should have been originally!

These rumors will need confirmation, of course. But pumping out films of approximately 60-minute in length would not only make sense for drawing in tourists and locals, but work perfectly to allow several shows a day and increase ticket sales. Yes, we actually do think about business type of stuff from time to time.
