The Wizard of Oz at Sphere opens August 28, 2025. Here's what you need to know about the show, tickets, how long the show will be at Sphere, and what those giant legs are outside.

From Technicolor to 16K: You’re Part of the Journey Now

You already know Vegas doesn’t do ordinary, and neither does the Sphere. This isn’t just a movie screening—it’s an Ultra High Definition sensory adventure. Imagine sitting in a 160,000-square-foot dome where the yellow brick road wraps all around you, Judy Garland’s voice soars through 167,000 speakers, and the tornado scene? You’ll actually feel the winds thanks to haptic seats and environmental effects.

The creative team at Sphere tasked a collection of mad scientists to make this happen—think Oscar winners, tech wizards, and film historians—powered with AI to restore and even expand the original 1939 film. That means you’ll see details that never made it onto the classic movie screen, all in ultra 16K resolution. The poppy fields? They’ll be above and around you. The Emerald City? It'll feel like you’re actually there!

The Giant Witch Legs: Your New Vegas Selfie Spot

If you’ve strolled past the Sphere lately, you’ve probably done a double take—yes, those are the Wicked Witch of the East’s legs, complete with 22-foot-tall ruby slippers, sticking out from the venue’s base. This larger-than-life installation isn’t just a Vegas-sized stunt (though, let’s be honest, we love those here). It’s the kickoff to one of the most anticipated new shows in Vegas. 

 

Insider tip: The Wicked Witch installation is free to visit now and it's the best, new selfie spot in Vegas. The legs (50 feet long!) and those iconic ruby slippers are on display outside the Sphere—daily viewing schedule posted here.

And don’t skip the Exosphere’s digital display—it recreates the famous scene where Dorothy’s house lands on the witch, swirling clouds and all.

What to Expect Inside: Experiencing Oz Like Never Before
  • Immersive Tech: Haptic seats, custom scents, and environmental effects put you right in the story.
