Radio City Music Hall adopts The Sphere's audio beamforming technology

Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp has announced that Sphere Immersive Sound, will launch at Radio City Music Hall this Autumn.

The system will debut at Radio City with the 2025 Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes, ahead of a January roll out for all concerts and events at the iconic venue.

The installation of the system at Radio City will also mark the launch of new features for Sphere Immersive Sound:

- 3D Differential Beamforming Technology allows artists and their teams to digitally sculpt the sound in the venue, optimising the acoustic experience for both the audience and the performers on stage.
- Intelligent Audio System Synthesis makes it possible for non-Holoplot speakers to be ingested into the Sphere Immersive Sound ecosystem, ensuring sound throughout the venue with consistent volume and clarity – even in traditionally hard-to-reach areas. 
- This opens opportunities for Sphere Immersive Sound to be incorporated into venues and facilities of all types and sizes in the future.
 
Sphere Immersive Sound was created and customised for Sphere in Las Vegas. There is also a version of Sphere Immersive Sound installed at the Beacon Theatre in New York City.
