Anyma Sells Out Historic Vegas Sphere Residency

Anyma is the solo project of DJ and producer Matteo Milleri, half of the Italian music production and EDM duo Tale of Us. Milleri is also Afterlife Records’ co-founder, and the NYE shows mark Las Vegas debut. The superstar Italian DJ is set to become the first electronic dance music artist to perform at the arena inside the $2.3 billion venue, the world’s largest spherical structure.

Anyma’s residency is a watershed moment for the pioneering Sphere, where only a handful of legendary rock and jam bands have performed prior: U2, Phish, Dead & Company and The Eagles. And as this EDM-fueled spectacle takes shape—quite literally in spherical form—he’s promised “the best show” of his remarkable career thus far.

“Three years ago when I started Anyma I would have never believed we’d come this far – all I can say is Thank You,” he said. “To all 100,000 of you attending I promise to give you the best show of my life, with special surprises and guests lined up.” – Anyma

After revealing a landmark New Year’s Eve headlining show, the Sphere added five more events due to “incredible ongoing demand,” per a press release. All six concerts comprising the groundbreaking residency from December 27th to January 1st sold out in less than 24 hours.

Anyma, who is beloved within the electronic music community for his haunting and immersive visuals, will be remixing the laws of physics in the giant orb, which contains the world’s largest- and highest-resolution wraparound LED screen. The DJ in 2016 co-founded the Afterlife label and touring brand, whose cerebral approach to techno has effectively reinvented the genre for today’s generation, mutating it into a dazzling—and oftentimes chilling—live music experience.

Anyma’s status as the Sphere’s first one-night headliner lasted three days. The Afterlife event featuring the EDM star in ‘The End of Gensys” has been expanded to Dec. 29-31. Three shows in all. The added dates were announced Wednesday. Tickets are on sale 9 a.m. Pacific time Tuesday at after.life/spherelasvegas. The show is a Live Nation Las Vegas-Sphere partnership.
