TL;DR Summary

U2 is set to launch a Las Vegas residency at the Sphere, a brand-new, perfectly round venue at the Venetian Resort, promising an entirely immersive experience with fully programmable 2K LED screens, haptic seats, and environmental effect capabilities. The venue also boasts the world's largest beamforming audio system, ensuring every seat gets precisely the same audio experience. The residency will feature the band's seminal album, Achtung Baby, and will be a celebration of love and joy. The show's visuals will act as immersive cinema capable of transporting people "to other locations both real and fictional," and as an extension of the kind of digital video art the group has been dabbling with for decades.
