The legendary rock band, which has won 22 Grammys, performed for two hours inside the massive, state-of-the-art spherical venue with crystal-clear audio. Throughout the night, there were a plethora of attractive visuals — including kaleidoscope images, a burning flag and Las Vegas’ skyline, taking the more than 18,000 attendees on U2’s epic musical journey. A galaxy of actors and sportspersons thronged the venue. U2 made their presence felt at the $2.3 billion Sphere, which stands 366-feet (111 meters) high and 516-feet (157 meters) wide. With the superb visual effects, the band’s 25-show residency opened with a splash performing a slew of hits including 'Mysterious Ways', 'Zoo Station', 'All I Want is You', 'Desire' and new single 'Atomic City'. Here's a look at some of the big names that attended the Sphere's opening night.
