Las Vegas Residency U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at the Sphere U2

In a Super Bowl commercial back in February, Irish rock band U2 announced that their return to live music would coincide with the highly anticipated opening of the MSG Sphere at The Venetian in Las Vegas.

After a four-year absence, U2 will take the stage for U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at the Sphere as the first act to perform at the new 17,500-seat venue on September 29. Additional dates include September 30, October 5, October 7, and October 8.

Joining Bono, the Edge, and Adam Clayton at MSG Sphere, Bram van den Berg will sit in for drummer and founding member Larry Mullen Jr. while he undergoes surgery this year.

In a press release, U2 addressed their fans as “the fifth member of the band” and expressed how much they didn’t want to let them down. “Bottom line, U2 hasn’t played live since December 2019, and we need to get back on stage and see the faces of our fans again,” the statement continued. “And what a unique stage they’re building for us out there in the desert…. We’re the right band, Achtung Baby the right album, and the Sphere the right venue to take the live experience of music to the next level.”
