What will be on the Sphere in Las Vegas during Super Bowl LVIII?

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Many people are curious about what will be projected on the massive Sphere in Las Vegas during the upcoming Super Bowl. On Sunday, we received a sneak peek of what to expect from the newest addition to the city’s skyline.

The collaboration with the NFL is scheduled to kick off on Monday, Feb. 5. On Sunday, Sphere Entertainment Co. previewed what will be displayed on the Sphere’s exterior, celebrated as the largest LED screen in the world.


During the game, CBS’s coverage of Super Bowl LVIII will be broadcast on the landmark display. Content on the Sphere will respond in real-time to the action on the field between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Additionally, officials say the Sphere will be the focus of two curated moments during the game broadcast on CBS.

There’s no immediate word on whether or not the adorable Sphere emoji will make an appearance during the big game, but the little guy is usually up to something, so that’s worth keeping an eye on as the game approaches.

In the week leading up to the Super Bowl, the Sphere will project NFL-related content, including a countdown clock and a graphic highlighting Sunday’s matchup.

Additionally, all 57 Super Bowl rings will be displayed on the Sphere in the lead up to the NFL championship game, providing football fans in the “entertainment capital of the world” a unique photo opportunity to represent their favorite team.

“In celebration of Super Bowl LVIII, Sphere Studios created custom content that will run throughout the week,” a news release from Sphere Entertainment Co. stated. “This includes, as part of its ongoing XO/Art program, commissions from legendary street artists to create custom art for the Exosphere that will run at various times this week.”

The Sphere’s exterior is the largest LED screen on Earth, consisting of approximately 1.2 million LED pucks spaced eight inches apart. Each puck contains 48 individual LED diodes.
