Here’s a way to spend $3,700 if you haven’t thought of one already.
Oprah is hosting an OprahWorld weekend in Vegas at the Sphere.
She’s putting on four shows over two days with guests you’ve really never heard of including Jacob Collier, Ocean Vuong, Ajeet, Wintley Phipps… and special guests. Will Gayle be there? Certainly. Stedman? Probably not. Eckhart Tolle? Maybe!
No Dr. Phil or Dr. Oz, however.
What is this thing? It’s called “Aha!” The price for the top tier, which includes two nights at the Bellagio Hotel, April 2nd – 4th, 2027, comes to $3,700. There are lower priced tickets, but you don’t get to meet Oprah, so what’s the point? Also, airfare is not included, so that could be another thousand bucks.
Plus, the shopping and gambling. And eating.
The Aha website asks: “Is this a concert? If not, what really is it? This is not a concert. While there is music—extraordinary music—think of AHA as a fully immersive, multi-sensory journey for the soul: part story, part score, part stillness, told through the largest screen and sound system ever built. No two people leave with the same experience.”
The site asks: Will any of the proceeds go to charity? “Yes. At least 10% of profits will be directed toward aligned philanthropic causes.” Not very specific.
Oprah says: “‘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,” said Winfrey. “Creating this experience has felt like the culmination of what I’ve spoken about and worked towards my entire life.”
Sounds like pure torture, but who knows? Maybe there will be a car or a washing machine under every seat.
