Vegas Baby, Vegas: Can You Buy Your Way Onto the Glittering Sphere?
So you've got a message for the world, a burning desire to plaster your name in lights brighter than a showgirl's smile on the Las Vegas Strip. And what better canvas than the monumental marvel, the eighth wonder of the world (okay, maybe that last part is debatable), the Las Vegas Sphere?
Fear not, aspiring digital billboard baron (or baroness!), because the answer is a resounding YES, you can! But before you start practicing your air guitar solo for your upcoming Sphere spectacular, there's a teensy, weensy detail to consider: cash.

Big Screen, Big Bucks: The Price of Sphere Fame
We're talking serious Sin City stacks. Prices are rumored to be in the hundreds of thousands per day, with some reports suggesting a cool $450,000 to light up the Sphere for 24 hours. That's more than most people pay for a house (unless maybe you live in a cardboard box... no judgment here).
But hey, for that kind of dough, you're getting unparalleled exposure. Millions of tourists gawking at your ad, A-listers giving you the side-eye from their chauffeured limos, pigeons mistaking your logo for a giant crumb – the possibilities are endless (and slightly terrifying for pigeons).
Tip: Take notes for easier recall later.
So You've Got the Money, Honey: What Can You Put on the Sphere?
Pretty much anything your heart desires! Dazzle them with dazzling visuals, blast them with a heart-wrenching social cause message (just make sure it has enough pizzazz to compete with the erupting volcanoes and dancing robots they usually show), or shamelessly self-promote your upcoming line of novelty socks. The Sphere is your oyster (although, they probably wouldn't allow you to advertise actual oysters – health code and all).
Just a heads up: There might be some content restrictions, like nothing that would cause mass traffic jams or spontaneous outbreaks of polka dancing. But other than that, the sky's the limit (well, the curved LED limit, technically).

QuickTip: Use the post as a quick reference later.
This one might be a tough sell. Maybe focus on a bigger tank first?

Unless you barter with Elvis impersonators (no guarantees there), full price seems to be the going rate.
QuickTip: Focus on what feels most relevant.
3. How to ensure everyone notices my ad on the Sphere?
Make it REALLY catchy. Like, singalong jingle catchy. Or maybe hire skywriters to write your message in smoke above the Sphere. Just don't get arrested for disturbing the peace.
4. How to make sure my ad doesn't get lost among all the other flashy stuff?
QuickTip: Check if a section answers your question.
Go big or go home! Think pyrotechnics, celebrity cameos (hi, George Clooney!), or maybe a live cat juggling act. Safety first, though.
5. How to impress my friends with Sphere trivia?
Hit them with this: The Sphere's 1.2 million LED panels are enough to cover 14 football fields. That's a lot of screen time for cat videos.
