Harry Styles Reportedly in Final Talks for 35-Show Residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas
The Sphere is about to get a lot more ‘golden.’
Las Vegas has long been the home of some of the most iconic music residencies in the world.
From Britney Spears and Celine Dion to Adele, the city has proven itself as the ultimate destination for legendary performers looking to give their fans a truly unforgettable live experience.
Now, Harry Styles, the British pop sensation known for hits like “Watermelon Sugar” and his time as a member of One Direction, is reportedly on the verge of sealing a deal for a major residency at The Sphere, the state-of-the-art venue in Las Vegas.

Sources close to the negotiations say that Styles is in the final stages of discussions to perform as many as 35 shows at The Sphere, with the residency potentially kicking off as soon as the second half of the year.
The residency would mark a significant milestone for The Sphere, which opened its doors in 2023 with a groundbreaking 40-show residency by U2.
While the venue has drawn attention for its immersive technology and stunning visuals, booking a younger, pop-oriented artist like Styles would provide a much-needed boost to the venue’s appeal to a wider, younger audience.
The Sphere, which cost $2.3 billion to construct, is considered one of the most advanced concert venues in the world.
Its cutting-edge technology allows for immersive, 360-degree visuals, transforming the concert experience into something unlike anything seen before. The venue has already seen success with U2’s residency, but to keep the momentum going, it’s essential for The Sphere to continue attracting top-tier talent like Styles.
While acts such as U2, The Eagles, and The Dead have been associated with the venue, drawing in a younger crowd with an artist like Styles would be a significant step toward expanding its demographic.
Styles, who has made a name for himself both as a solo artist and as a former member of One Direction, has built a reputation for electrifying live performances.
His “Love On Tour” between 2022 and 2023 grossed an impressive $617 million, further cementing his status as one of the biggest stars in the world.
Although Styles has largely remained out of the public eye since the tragic death of One Direction bandmate Liam Payne in October 2024, he has still kept busy with personal projects.
In February, he ran the Tokyo Marathon, showing his continued commitment to his personal goals.
Should Styles officially sign on for a Las Vegas residency, it would be a game-changer for The Sphere, adding another high-profile artist to its roster.
For the venue, bringing in an artist of Styles’ caliber would ensure its continued relevance in the competitive world of Las Vegas residencies. For Styles, it would be yet another opportunity to connect with his massive fanbase in a city known for its legendary shows and world-class performances.
