Sphere Entertainment Co. has been on a roll recently. The company’s cutting edge Sphere venue just added six additional dates to No Doubt’s May 2026 residency. Overwhelming demand for seats led to the full dozen set of nights in Las Vegas with the Gwen Stefani led rock band. Stefani’s group was quite a get as they have rarely performed together in years, other than at 2024’s Coachella festival.
In other music news, Sphere also announced Kenny Chesney’s return in June 2026. Tickets go on sale October 31 for the country singer’s second run at Sphere.
JUST ANNOUNCED: @kennychesney will return to Sphere on June 19, 20, 24, 26 & 27!

More Than Music
Sphere is best known for these blockbuster music residencies that have included U2, Backstreet Boys and Zac Brown Band and Carín León. In fact, the proprietary “Sphere Immersive Sound” system, a key part of the venue’s appeal, is being rolled out to other iconic venues, including Radio City Music Hall, creating a new revenue stream for its technology.
However, Sphere has reached a grand achievement beyond concerts. Postcard from Earth, directed by Darren Aronofsky, was an early award winning immersive experience offered at the Las Vegas venue. Furthermore, Sphere’s latest full sensory experience, “The Wizard of Oz at Sphere,” has been a runaway financial success. Since its launch on August 28, 2025, the show has:
- Sold more than one million tickets as of mid-October 2025.
- Generated over $130 million in ticket sales in less than two months.
This success follows its previous hit, Postcard from Earth, and solidifies the venue’s model of creating its own blockbuster content.
Positive Financial Results
Sphere Entertainment Co. reported total revenues of $282.7 million for the second quarter (three months) of 2025, a 3% increase from $273.4 million in the same period of 2024. The company reiterated in the 2025 second quarter results that its liquidity is dependent on the Sphere’s ability to generate significant positive cash flow and that the success of its original immersive productions is uncertain. “The Wizard of Oz at Sphere” is pointing the way to how that success could happen.
Wall Street is paying attention. The company’s stock returns are up 66% year-to-date and up 54% in the past 3 months.
AMC, AMC+ and Sphere Entertainment Co. also launched a co-branded Halloween advertising platform for AMC’s FearFest and Sphere’s “Sphere of Fear” that is seeing premier brands – including BACARDÍ Rum– activate across both properties this month. The campaign includes branded activations that run on the venue’s Exosphere during the second annual “Sphere of Fear” celebration with drone footage airing on AMC Networks’ linear, streaming, digital and social platforms as part of the long-running, annual horror and genre programming event, reaching fans everywhere they seek out their fears.
