    Usher, Dolby Live Las Vegas - My Way Residency
    Tiffany H.

    Now let's be fair - this show is not for everyone. It is absolutely not family friendly in its current iteration. Explaining exotic dancers to small children is not something any parent wants to do. The way that the stage is set up can be very distracting - there are not enough places where there are height variations on the stage. The lack of dimension in the staging can make it difficult to see the artist. Usher is incredibly interactive with the audience in this show - he goes out into the audience and performs from there. If you are short and you are seated in the middle of a section, you might end up feeling as though you've missed a lot of the show. People also have their phones out a lot during the show, as can be seen on TikTok and other platforms. That means that many of the concertgoers are standing. People came to this show to party, and most people in the audience have spent at least $400 for upper level seats to be there. Many of the audience members came to Las Vegas just for this show. They know what they came for -- and Usher is going to give that to them. They're going to party like the rock stars they're feeling themselves to be in that moment; and after spending plane fares, accommodations, tickets, and outfit money? That is to be understood. Usher understands this assignment quite well, and he fulfills all of the requirements in the rubric. The show is very indulgent. The exotic dancers could benefit from a really good "house mother" to help them with securing their costumes in place. I don't want anyone to be "over-exposed." The show is very physical - especially the pole dancing segments. Keeping those outfits in place is challenging under the best of conditions. I would have loved to have seen more artistic costuming - more of a nod to Vegas' showgirl history. But this show is inspired by the "Dirty South" aesthetic, and that's what we've got here.... One of the pole dancers was a body double for a main character in P-Valley, I am told. If you want to know what you're in for? Watch an episode, and make your decision. If you find that kind of dancing to be too graphic for your taste, avert your eyes as she does leg work on the pole. I went on a Wednesday night. Usher played his heart out for his fans - he was 100% engaged, notwithstanding the mid-week performance. He was in tune. His mic was on. His energy is elite; watching his skate routines was fascinating! Now that you're fully aware of what you're going to see, it is up to you to decide if you want to go. If it's your kind of thing, you'll have a night for the ages. If it's not? Maybe sit this one out, and let the seat go to someone who would be a true enthusiast. I have seen a lot of shows in my life; I have worked on a lot of shows, as well. Yes, there are areas where some minor changes would be highly beneficial. But Usher knows his audience. This Residency is called "My Way," and not for nothing.... A very special shout-out goes to the DJ who keeps this party moving along beautifully from opening until conclusion. I highly suggest the Taste of Passion after party because he is often there.

    If I could give this show 100 stars i would. Usher is so talented and definately knows how to put on a show! I dont know if it was because of his birthday month, but we had the pleasure of have 3 special guests. Keith Sweat, Robin Thicke and Teddy Riley! They all performed. If given the opportunity to see him again, I would! Special shout out to my inlaws for the great seats!

    This show is AMAZING! I traveled to Vegas just to see this and I'd do it again - well worth it. Usher is a true performer and he gave it his all with straight hits for a full 2.5 hours. There's so many different elements to the show and it gives a dope storyline as he transitions through different parts. There's a little something for everyone because he performs such a variety of different songs from his career. His dancers and band are all great and really elevate the show that much more. I truly enjoyed myself. I'd highly recommend going to sss him at one of the dates.

    I just went to the show on Wednesday night.....please don't purchase the on stage tickets. No interaction from Usher at all as much as those tickets cost he could have came over and did something for us. The only thing I got out of it was some Usher bucks. At least the DJ was rockin.

    Expensive, but worth it! Even on the balcony the view is great. This is a perfectly sized theatre and the audio is amazing!

    I don't even know where to begin... this show was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I flew to Vegas to celebrate my birthday and of course what would a birthday weekend in Vegas be without the man himself USHER. If I could give this show 1000 stars I would. His vocals, choreography, production everything was on point. Even the DJ is awesome. He does a phenomenal job of getting the crowd ready for the show. I highly recommend Don't walk but run. I will definitely be back to see him. 10 out of 10!

    This is a must see show! Loved everything about Usher's residency! It was the ultimate Vegas show and he performed all of his hits! The production, the back-up dancers, the band .... Everything in the show was so well thought out. Usher took the time to go out into the audience and sing to his fans, get up close, and you are able to truly see how much personality he has! He is a true showman! I can't wait to go back!

    The DJ playing before the concert was amazing. Had us up on our feet even before the show started. We danced the whole time. Some parts were a little graphic with the strippers but were all adults here.

    My husband and I got to see the Backstreet Boys at Sphere thanks to a friend who had extra tickets…read morethrough a friends-and-family invite, so we ended up with more of a VIP experience than a typical guest. Wanted to share both the amazing parts and a few honest critiques for anyone attending. We walked into a special check-in zone with a short line, arrived about an hour early, got our wristbands, and were led to our own private standing-room VIP section near the stage. It wasn't crowded at all -- we practically had it to ourselves. We even had our own server, which was a really nice touch. One small hiccup: the person who handed us our wristbands didn't explain what they actually included, so we were figuring it out as we went. The Sphere itself is breathtaking -- the graphics were stunning, and you can tell an incredible amount of work went into the visuals. We had a great view of the Backstreet Boys from our spot and got some great close-up photos. My heart went out to guests seated way up in the 300-400 level sections, though -- the screens barely featured close-ups of the band throughout the show, so from up there, they were probably watching tiny specks on stage most of the night. The one real downside: drink prices. A gin and tonic and a vodka soda (both well drinks) came out to about $64 with tip. The drinks weren't even generously poured. Because of the cost, we could only afford one drink each the entire night, which took away from the experience a bit. Sphere, please reconsider pricing here -- it's a significant letdown in an otherwise incredible venue. Exiting was seamless -- we were out the door in seconds thanks to our pathway. *Tips for future visitors:* - If you're seeing the Backstreet Boys, wear all white or white/light blue -- it's the unofficial dress code and it makes for a great crowd photo moment. - Parking: skip the stress and park at The Venetian, Treasure Island, or Fashion Show Mall -- there's a walkable bridge connecting Venetian directly to Sphere. - If you can swing seats lower/closer, prioritize it -- the screen doesn't do much for the upper-level sections. You won't be able to see the backstreet boys at all. - If you want more of the visuals aspect, then upper level sections is where it's at. If you want more of a concert vibe, general standing floor section is the best for that. - Budget extra for drinks or eat/drink beforehand -- prices inside are steep. There are bars and restaurants inside. *Overall: an unforgettable night* with incredible visuals and a great VIP twist, just bring extra cash if you're planning to drink.

    Buy the ticket. See the show…read more I was here for the Backstreet Boys and it didn't disappoint. The visuals during the concert are absolutely stunning. We sat in 407 and, while further from the stage, was perfect to be emerged in the millennium world. Yes, the stairs are steep but no worse than what we have at the hockey arena in Pittsburgh. I'm already planning to attempt to convince my husband to come back next summer lol.

    I was in Vegas for a few days and realized the Aces' home opener lined up perfectly with my trip…read moresuch an easy decision to grab a ticket! I stayed at Park MGM and was pleasantly surprised that T-Mobile Arena is literally right across the street. No dealing with crazy Uber/Lyft prices, which was a huge win. The timing couldn't have been better it was opening night and their championship ring ceremony. Watching the team receive their 2025 championship rings in person was an incredible experience. The energy in the arena was unmatched! Seeing A'ja Wilson, Jackie Young, and Chelsea Gray play at home was absolutely electric. The arena itself is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate. Staff were super friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. If you're in Vegas during the WNBA season, I highly recommend catching an Aces game. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

    Ok so my nephews favorite fighter in the UFC is Charles Oliveira and he was making his comeback…read morefight after a stunning loss in his last fight vs Ilia Topuria to fight Max Holloway in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena at UFC 326. So he is a good kid-does well in school,about to graduate high school,so he asked his dad if he could take him to watch the fight live as a graduation gift. Well once they decided to go,they extended the invite to myself & his grandmother,who is my 73 year old mother. Well this was going to be my mother's 1st UFC event,so to say she was beyond excited is a massive understatement. We secured tickets thru our membership to UFC Fight Club-which gives members presale access to all live UFC events. We arrived in Vegas on Saturday morning and after dropping off the bags and grabbing a quick bite we headed off to T-Mobile for UFC 326. I love how T-Mobile handles security for these events as you don't have to empty your pockets,you just walk thru and it scans you and if they see something they stop you,otherwise you just walk right in the stadium. T-Mobile Arena is located on Las Vegas Blvd,tucked off the street between the New York-New York Casino and the Park MGM Casino.Very easy access for walk ups or drops offs if you are coming from far away. It's a pretty modern stadium-Home of both the WNBA Champion Las Vegas Aces and former NHL Champs Vegas Golden Knights. This stadium is for sure built to put on larger than life events,so I had zero doubt UFC 326 would go off without a hitch. My seats for this event were the last row at the very top of the stadium,so I can now truly say,there is not a bad seat in the house and the views are amazing from every seat. I'm not a small guy,so arena seating can get tight at times,but I had zero issues with the seats being too crunched together at T-Mobile. I did see two fights break out between fans in the hallways while the event was going on,but both times security swarmed quickly and dissolved the situation before it got out of hand-I don't think my mother even noticed the fights. Drinks and food are typical arena big event Vegas prices,but at least this arena does have every option available but honestly I don't eat or drink too much at sporting events,I think I had a tall can for like $18 or something pretty close to that. Getting out of the stadium was chaotic,at least where we sat due to everyone being funneled to one escalator to service many sections of the stadium-which may have led a bit to the unrest from a few of the overly emotional fans who may have been a bit overly excited about the last fight results-but it's UFC-it's kind of expected to have a rowdy fanbase. Once out of the arena-we made our way to many of the neighboring bars and restaurants in the area for a lively Saturday night in Las Vegas. In closing-If you find yourself with an upcoming event,be it a concert,a hockey game,a basketball game or a UFC event,I guarantee this arena will provide you everything needed to have a great time-like my mother who had the time of her life at her 1st UFC event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

    I came here for my first time, not to watch one specific artist, group, or cirque de ole show…read more Instead me and 5 others came to watch the American Music Awards! Extremely tight security provided by MGM Grand Hotel, super friendly crowd filled with not only American's, but all sorts of international countries from around the world, there were a lot of Japanese and Korean speaking people in and around my seat section. The facility is quite big, lots more security with large metal detectors you need to walk through as you make your way inside the arena, food and beverage concession stands located once you arrive in the lobby, large and extra clean restroom facilities, this stadium can hold about 16,000 people! The seats that me and my party were sitting in were on the balcony riser's to side of stage left. The tunnel where all of the celebrities walked in and out from the stage into their seats on the floor were just beneath our balcony! Such close up views of who were there nominated for an AMA and receiving an award.

    TOP NOTCH!! 100 PERCENT ENTERTAINMENT! MGM GRAND GARDEN ARENA DOES IT AGAIN FOR AN ANNUAL AWARD…read moreSHOW!! This arena has been around for decades and is a staple here in Vegas for seeing so many amazing live shows! In my opinion the best place to catch an award show or concert, too. You can see everything just about from any seat in the house. Pure enjoyment! Had the amazing opportunity to go to the Annual Academy of Country Music Awards and it did not disappoint! Very organized on behalf of MGM Grand Garden Arena, staff, and team! However, when it came to trying to find a simple bottle of purified water to drink, you will not find one here. All beverages are Dasani and Coke products. Dasani water is full of chemicals. So for anyone with allergies, probably not the best. Because of that the concession Management was able to accommodate a couple of their behind-the-scenes water complimentary. A huge thank you to their team for getting that for me. Really made a difference in my experience, quenched my thirst, too. Merchandise area was very nicely laid out. There was only one area however, perhaps another table would've been helpful for the large crowd as things were selling out and even the merch team directed people to order the souvenirs on the Amazon Prime website. By the way, the ACM's aired on Amazon Prime for the first time in TV history not being on regular prime television. Once the show started, it was absolutely incredible. Really neat to see production go to work. Great job to all of the production teams putting together this amazing show. The show was approximately 2 1/2 hours long. The sound and lighting was outstanding and the set designs were fantastic and so creative! Since I arrived there extra early to avoid the traffic and ensure a parking spot, there was plenty of time to walk around the concourse. Restrooms and seating were amazingly clean. Getting out of the arena was kind of crazy there was only one exit everyone trying to get out at once through the lobby was very hectic. Overall, just an incredible night and hands-down best place to see a show in town! :)

    I've wanted to see Chris Angel perform for years, so I was excited to finally experience the show…read more Unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to the expectations I had built up over the years. There were a few really cool illusions and magic tricks, and Chris is clearly a talented performer. However, I was expecting more "wow" moments, and much of the show didn't leave me as amazed as I thought it would. The theater staff was friendly and helpful, which made getting in and finding our seats easy. Drinks, however, were very overpriced. The venue itself also felt a bit dated and run-down, and the dark, demonic-themed set design wasn't really my style. Overall, I'm glad I finally got to see the show after wanting to for so long, but it wasn't the unforgettable experience I was hoping for.
