Oprah is headed to a venue that’s a little bigger than a TV studio.
From April 2-4, 2027, the legendary talk show host will headline four immersive shows with musicians, artists and storytellers that she’s calling ‘Aha’ at Las Vegas’ Sphere.
The quartet of two-hour gigs are slated to take place:
Friday, April 2, 2027
8 p.m.
Saturday, April 3, 2027
8 p.m.
Sunday, April 4, 2027
12 p.m.
Sunday, April 4, 2027
6 p.m.
A press release describes ‘Aha’ as a “collective of global artists” led by Winfrey and featuring a musical experience from seven-time Grammy winner Jacob Collier, original poetry from author Ocean Vuong (whose recently-released novel “The Emperor of Gladness” was featured in Winfrey’s long-running book club), musician Ajeet and gospel singer Wintley Phipps and more that will “take guests on a profound journey of wonder, joy, and the ultimate ‘AHA.’”
“‘AHA’ is a dream that came to me as I sat in awe at the opening night of U2 at the Sphere, mesmerized by the possibilities of how the space could be used as a tool for creating greater awareness and understanding of ourselves and our connection to each other,” Winfrey said. “Creating this experience has felt like the culmination of what I’ve spoken about and worked towards my entire life.”
Sphere is known for its high-end technological capabilities, which include the world’s highest-resolution LED display that envelops audiences from above and the world’s most advanced concert-grade audio system, Sphere Immersive Sound.
“Each seat (is) the best in the house due to the ultra-resolution audio flow pumped by Holoplot — a specialized sound system that aims to change the future of live performances,” the New York Post’s Alex Mitchell reported.
“This means standing next to the stage won’t blow out your eardrums and sitting high up feels like you’re next to the stage.”
No word yet on whether or not audience members will be treated to cars by Winfrey.
Tickets officially go on sale to the general public on Friday, Sept. 25 at 10 a.m. PT through Ticketmaster but are available now on trusted secondary market sites like Vivid Seats.

Who is performing with Oprah at Sphere?
In the off-chance you’re not familiar with Oprah’s ‘Aha’ special guests, here’s a bit about each of them:
Jacob Collier doesn’t put on conventional live shows. Instead, he includes the audience in call-and-response sing-a-longs that create a communal experience. Notable tracks of his include the soothing “Never Gonna Be Alone,” twinkly toe-tapper “Time Alone With You” and invigorating party-starter “All I Need.”
Ocean Vuong has had his work published in The New York Times and The New Yorker but is primarily known for his novels “On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous” and the aforementioned “The Emperor of Gladness,” which tells Vuong’s story working in elder care and the service industry.
Ajeet made their name combining Irish folk music with mystical and meditative soundscapes. The group is comprised of members from the United States, Spain and, of course, Ireland. We recommend starting with their stirring track “Akaal” as an introduction to their calming sound.
Wintley Phipps is a Trinidadian-American inspirational Gospel singer-songwriter known for his booming bass-baritone voice. Phipps’ most-streamed song on Spotify is “To God Be the Glory.”
There will also be “original works” by Oscar-nominated composer Max Richter, Grammy-nominated composer, producer, and electronic artist Jon Hopkins, artist Es Devlin and the Plum Village Monks, “Moonlight” screenwriter Tarell Alvin McCraney and Grammy Award-winning musician and vocal director Jason White.
Canadian film production designer and director Ethan Tobman serves as director.
