Phish are the next major act booked to play Las Vegas’ eye-popping Sphere venue. The band announced on Thursday (Nov. 30) that they will do a four-show run at the building from April 18-21, 2024, with each night set to feature a unique setlist and visuals.

“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,” Trey Anastasio, Phish guitarist and vocalist said in a statement. “We’re thrilled to present this completely unique experience to Phish fans.”


Known for switching things up every show, the band promised that the Sphere gigs will continue that tradition, while adding a “once-in-a-lifetime audio-visual experience” into the mix; they also noted that these will be the only Sphere shows by Phish in 2024.
