It's not an optical illusion: the MSG Sphere is mind-blowingly real

MSG The Sphere

Anyone driving through Las Vegas this week may have thought aliens had landed. Looking like a spaceship against the skyline, the giant MSG Sphere was turned on for the first time, offering a show featuring roving eyeballs, spiralling galaxies, US flags and.. er.. Halloween pumpkins. You name it, it was in there.

The 366-foot-tall concert venue is being billed as the world's largest spherical structure. It doesn't open for events until September, but the exterior LED screen was turned on for 4 July celebrations, and it looks like this could become one for our pick of the best buildings to visit – if you like truly gaudy experiences.
