This holiday week, we’re revisiting our biggest stories of 2023. Already an icon on the Las Vegas skyline, the Sphere at The Venetian Resort opened on September 29, 2023 and instantly entered the international culture conversation. From the New Yorker and the Atlantic to SNL, people around the world are talking A LOT about the giant magical compendium of light and images.

Whether you’re ready to shell out hundreds for a ticket inside the Sphere, the outside is also a marvel — so what’s the best place for viewing the Sphere and maybe even snapping a shot? In this episode from September, Las Vegas photojournalist Mikayla Whitmore shares tips for viewing and photographing the Sphere with host Dayvid Figler. Check out Mikayla’s already famous featured image in Bloomberg here.
