As you may recall, these shows won’t be the legendary jam band’s first at the iconic globe-like venue. Trey Anastasio and co. headlined a quartet of concerts at Sphere in April 2024.
“Across four nights and eight sets of music – featuring 68 different songs, with nary a repeat – Phish cycled through a staggering range of immersive visuals that spanned trippy abstractions to real-life footage to playful illustrations,” Billboard noted in an overwhelmingly positive review of their inventive show that included heavy praise for trippy larger-than-life images like a kaleidoscopic car wash and a dog that appeared to lick the crowd.
In the event you won’t be able to make the pilgrimage to the Strip, Phans can catch the almost Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees at New York City’s Madison Square Garden as part of their annual New Year’s Eve residency. Concerts go down Dec. 28-31.
Fans Phans can purchase tickets for all upcoming Phish shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale for the recently-announced Sphere residency is Friday, Dec. 12.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

Phish new music
On July 12, 2024, Phish dropped their 16th studio album “Evolve.”
As expected, the band completely surprises. No two songs are alike here; their only connection is the cosmically in-sync ensemble.
Personally, we were most taken with the slinky, bass-y, mysterious “Hey Stranger,” upbeat toe-tapper “A Wave Of Hope” and slow burn of “Monsters.”
Be sure to try the restrained Beatles-esque “Valdese,” too. It’s impossible not to crack a smile while listening.

What’s it like to see Phish live
In December 2023, the celebrity.land spoke with comedian Max Fine about what it’s like to attend a Phish concert.
“It’s not like anything you’ve ever seen because it’s never happened before,” the Phan explained.
“Every show is special and unique because they don’t plan for it. You get to be whoever you want at a Phish show.”
