The Wizard of Oz at Sphere

Wednesday at 5:00 PM, Sphere at The Venetian Resort runs one of its most talked-about time slots for The Wizard of Oz — the early-evening show that lets you experience the Emerald City glowing before the Strip lights up outside. This production uses Google’s Veo 2 and Imagen 3 AI models to upscale the original film to a resolution that fills Sphere’s entire 160,000-square-foot surface.

Every sensory layer has been engineered for maximum impact: infrasound haptic seats, wind arrays, atmospheric scent, and pyrotechnics that make the tornado feel real. It’s a 75-minute show that earns every second.
