City Cast Las Vegas
🌎 $138 to see a movie at the Sphere?
June 11, 2025 · — Rob Kachelriess
🌎 “The Wizard of Oz” lands at the Sphere.
The 1939 classic was adapted for the venue’s 4D effects and massive video wall. It debuts Aug. 28 with tickets between $138 and $194 😐 Some following daytime screenings appear to be as low as $114.
But you know what’s free? Posing for pics in front of giant ruby red slippers and 50-foot legs “trapped” underneath the Sphere — on display at select times.
