Sphere is redefining live entertainment and extending the reach of its transformative impact.
We are proud to collaborate with DCT Abu Dhabi to develop Sphere in their city.
Its walls and ceiling are covered by a 16K-by-16K-resolution screen for maximum immersion.
The location took seven years to complete and reportedly exceeded $2 billion in budget.
Its a new genre of immersive experience, and a new art form.
