Best seats at Sphere Las Vegas
Sphere doesn't publish a best-seat guide. Before it opened, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that about 800 seats in the premium lower 100 sections have obstructed views of the screen. Some events use seat haptics, which Wikipedia says about 10,000 seats have, and guests who would rather avoid them can ask for non-haptic seats.
Tips before you go
Only bags about 6 by 6 by 2 inches or smaller are allowed, apart from diaper and medical bags, and Sphere has no bag or coat check. The venue is cashless, every guest of any age needs a ticket, and all exits are final. On-site parking is limited, so Sphere also points to the Howard Hughes garages. Standard admission guests can walk in by the Venetian Bridge stairway, and rideshares pick up at Manhattan Street and Westchester Drive.
