U2 Super Bowl ad pokes fun at MSG Sphere

U2 plans to run a splashy commercial during Fox’s Super Bowl LVII on Sunday. A band representative posted a mysterious but also very beautiful image of the MSG Sphere with a baby’s head glowing inside it at The Venetian. The avenue at night is shown in the background.

U2 has been widely covered by international media companies as the opening entry for The Sphere. We reported in this space that with the first two dates expected in late September, U2 focused on the November 1991 release of “Achtung Baby”.

The legendary Irish rock band will be the first of four to six headliners, playing two shows each of six non-consecutive weekends. There are 12 shows in total.

During the preview in Las Vegas on January 23, MSG President Lucas Watson Confirm Program Rotationwithout confirming U2, or any other artist, for Sphere.

The master plan complies with David Byrnes, executive vice president and chief financial officer, Madison Square Garden Entertainment Comments on Friday said the venue would open in September.

Over the past few weeks, U2 has gradually leaked details. Frontman Bono told actor and podcast host Sean Hayes last month that he couldn’t announce any Las Vegas plans. But the rock star did say, “We haven’t signed yet, but if we did, if we did sign this, I would say, if we can achieve what we’re talking about, it’s not like what we used to do But it’s nothing Las Vegas has ever seen. It would be extraordinary if it happened.”
