Dorothy's iconic journey down the yellow brick road is getting an awe-inspiring, high-tech twist - and it's unlike anything you've seen before. The Wizard of Oz at Sphere is not just a movie screening; it's an all-senses, full-immersion adventure that puts you right inside the magical land of Oz, shoulder-to-shoulder with Dorothy, the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion.
Housed inside Sphere, Las Vegas' revolutionary entertainment venue, this reimagined cinematic experience harnesses the venue's jaw-dropping 160,000-square-foot LED display - the largest of its kind in the world - which wraps around the audience, creating a 360-degree visual journey through Kansas and the Land of Oz. From the moment Dorothy's farmhouse lifts off in the tornado, you'll feel like you're swept up in the whirlwind right alongside her.
What makes The Wizard of Oz at Sphere truly transformative is the venue's use of cutting-edge technology to stimulate every sense. Haptic seats rumble and respond to action on screen, environmental effects simulate everything from swirling winds to misty poppy fields, and even custom scents bring the Emerald City and Kansas plains to life. It's not just a movie - it's an adventure you can see, hear, feel, and smell.
The film's beloved original songs have been lovingly remastered and re-orchestrated to match Sphere's unparalleled acoustics. Powered by 167,000 speakers and the proprietary Sphere Immersive Sound system, every note and lyric reaches new levels of clarity and depth, making classics like "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" more powerful than ever before.

In true Oz fashion, the outside of Sphere has also been transformed into part of the story. A larger-than-life installation of the Wicked Witch of the East's legs - measuring 50 feet long and topped with 22-foot-tall ruby slippers - appears to have been flattened beneath the venue itself, recreating the iconic moment when Dorothy's house crash-lands in Munchkinland. Above, the Exosphere - the massive digital exterior - showcases a mesmerizing animation of the farmhouse twister landing scene, turning the Las Vegas skyline into a portal to Oz. Visitors can view the witch's legs installation outside Sphere during posted public hours. Be sure to snap a selfie and share your moment using hashtags #SphereVegas and #WOZatSphere.
