Sphere is turning its Atrium into a slice of Oz for Halloween weekend, with a three-day celebration planned around showings of The Wizard of Oz at Sphere from Friday, Oct. 30, through Sunday, Nov. 1. Guests can expect commemorative treat bags, themed concessions, trick-or-treat stations, a 3D haunted-forest photo moment and Halloween music, plus a few Winged Monkeys loose among the crowd looking to interact with guests.
The lineup was detailed by KSNV, which reported that guests attending the Friday-through-Sunday run can get a commemorative Halloween treat bag, enjoy themed concessions, take part in trick-or-treat stations, explore the 3D haunted forest photo moment, and dance to Halloween music. The same report notes that Winged Monkeys will also be on the loose to interact with guests, a nod to one of the more memorable creatures from the Land of Oz. For those wanting to extend the night, Sphere is also hosting an afterparty following the 8 p.m. show on Friday, Oct. 30.
Costumes Welcome, But Masks Are a No-Go
Costumes are not required to attend the showings, according to the KSNV report, but anything guests do wear must comply with all Sphere venue policies — including a prohibition on masks. Sphere's own show page for The Wizard of Oz at Sphere echoes that guests may come in costume or without one, so long as the outfit doesn't run afoul of venue rules. The Sphere show page also notes the experience is intended for guests aged 6 and up, and that every attendee, regardless of age, needs a ticket.
Families looking to bring younger kids along have a financial break to work with: per fox5vegas.com, “Child Admission” tickets for anyone 17 and under are available for a limited time, with the purchase of at least one full-price standard admission ticket. The Atrium activities described by the station are available to all attendees of showings running Friday, Oct. 30, through Sunday, Nov. 1, expanding what Sphere offered Halloween-goers the year before.
A Bigger Build Than Last Year's Costume Parties
Sphere's Halloween push in 2026 goes further than its approach in 2025, when the venue announced just three Halloween costume-party showings of The Wizard of Oz at Sphere — the 10 p.m. show on Oct. 30 and both shows on Halloween itself, according to sphereentertainmentco.com. That earlier run featured a Yellow Brick Carpet and special treats for guests of all ages, as broadwayworld.com reported at the time, and tickets for the experience started at $104 in that 2025 announcement — a price point tied specifically to that year's on-sale, not confirmed for the current run.
Sphere describes The Wizard of Oz at Sphere as an experience that takes guests deeper into the Land of Oz with new visuals, sound and expanded 4D effects.
What to Know Before You Go
Sphere, located at 255 Sands Ave. in Las Vegas, operates as a no-bag facility, meaning large bags and backpacks aren't permitted inside, though certain small bags and medically necessary bags are allowed. The venue is also cashless, accepting only credit or debit cards and mobile payments at its registers. Those planning to walk through the haunted-forest photo moment or grab a treat bag during the Oct. 30-Nov. 1 run should plan their wallets — and their Halloween costumes, mask-free — accordingly.
