Radio City Rockettes Appear on Sphere for the Holidays
It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas In Las Vegas, with the Radio City Rockettes on a Sphere.
Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp announced today that the Radio City Rockettes, the stars of the beloved Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes that runs annually at Radio City Music Hall in New York, will be featured daily throughout the holiday season on the Exosphere, the fully programmable LED exterior of Sphere Las Vegas.
The festive Christmas Spectacular activation debuted overnight, marking the first time the Exosphere has featured dancing wrapped 360 degrees around the venue. The content was developed in collaboration between Sphere Entertainment and MSG Entertainment, both part of the MSG family of companies.
The activation begins with the first Christmas ornament to be displayed on the Exosphere.
The top of the vibrant red and gold ornament begins to spin off, revealing the Rockettes’ legs. As the top of the ornament continues to rise, the Rockettes are revealed, at 125 feet tall performing their iconic precision choreography that concludes with their beloved kick-line, while rotating around the Exosphere. The creative is meant to be transparent, so the Rockettes backs are visible through Sphere, marking the first time the technique has been utilized on the immersive digital canvas. The ornament closes, and the iconic Radio City Music Hall marquee appears in vibrant neon, replicating the landmark venue in New York City.

The Sphere, around this time of year makes a nice addition to a very Vegas Christmas.
