The guitar virtuoso meets the world’s most advanced stage: John Mayer opens John Mayer Live At Sphere at Sphere on Thursday, April 8, 2027, at 8:00 PM Pacific, the first night of a run stretching to mid-June.
Mayer is a proven Sphere hand — his Dead & Company residencies helped define what the room does to live music — and this solo run puts his own catalog inside the 160,000-square-foot LED canvas: “Gravity,” “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room,” “Your Body Is a Wonderland,” “Waiting on the World to Change” and the Sob Rock era, played by one of the finest guitarists of his generation. Sphere residencies pair the performances with bespoke visuals built for the venue’s 16K interior display and haptic, beam-formed sound, so every seat hears the mix as if from the front row.
Date, time and show details
What: John Mayer Live At Sphere
When: Thursday, April 8, 2027 — 8:00 PM Pacific (the run continues with multiple dates through June 12, 2027)
Where: Sphere, 255 Sands Ave, Las Vegas, NV 89169
April 8 is opening night of the residency. Sphere concerts typically run around two hours, and doors open well ahead of showtime — the interior spectacle begins the moment you reach your seat.
The venue: Sphere
Sphere is the 17,600-seat spherical arena just east of the Strip, wrapped in the 580,000-square-foot Exosphere LED display. Inside, a 16K-resolution screen wraps up and over the audience, matched with Sphere Immersive Sound and haptic seats. No other room on earth presents a concert this way, and guitar-led residencies — Mayer’s own Dead & Company run among them — have become the venue’s signature musical events.
Tickets
Tickets for John Mayer on April 8, 2027 are sold through Ticketmaster, the official seller for Sphere events — see the event listing for current availability. Book through the official listing rather than resale marketplaces, and note that Ticketmaster does not display a starting price on the search listing for this event; prices shown inside the event page apply to the seats you select. With dates spread across April, May and June, midweek shows generally offer the widest seat choice, while opening night and Saturdays sell first.
Getting to Sphere
Sphere is at 255 Sands Ave, Las Vegas, NV 89169, just east of the Strip behind The Venetian. A pedestrian bridge connects the venue directly to The Venetian Expo, and the Las Vegas Monorail’s Harrah’s/The LINQ station is a short walk away. On-site parking is limited and pre-booked; most guests arrive via The Venetian and Palazzo garages, rideshare drop-off zones on Sands Avenue, or on foot from the Strip. Plan to arrive early — entry lines and the walk to your section take longer than at a conventional arena.

Good to know before you go: Sphere shows start on time and the visuals begin with the first note, so be in your seat before 8:00 PM. If you are prone to motion sensitivity, the steep upper sections and wraparound screen can be intense — lower-bowl seats offer the gentlest sightlines.
