Dead & Company is taking over the Sphere in Las Vegas for a second time to celebrate the band’s 10-year anniversary. The new 18-show residency brings a fully immersive concert experience that’ll transform how you watch the group perform. The rock band joins the list of legendary artists taking over Sin City, but with a twist. Instead of performing on a simple stage, the Sphere gives a 360-degree view filled with graphics associated with the band — and that includes the classic dancing bears.
After announcing their final tour back in 2022, the rock stars are not ready to leave the stage yet. This version of the Grateful Dead — featuring founding members Bob Weir and Mickey Hart alongside John Mayer and the band’s longtime collaborators Oteil Burbridge, Jeff Chimenti and Jay Lane — are now offering additional opportunities to see them play for a limited time.
Following an artist presale on Dec. 10, tickets are now live on ticketmaster and various ticket resell sites. The Dead & Company: Dead Forever residency will run from March 20 through May 17. With tickets selling out, you don’t want to wait too long and risk missing out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

What Are the Best Seats At the Sphere?
One Billboard editor claims the 100 sections are some of the best seats at the Sphere for its “pretty epic and obstructed” views. You might be able to get similar sights also from the 200 and 400 sections though, which are only slightly further away from the stage.
With travel deals going on, you can also score additional savings on hotels around the area, flights and even tickets to see other artists performing in Las Vegas.
