"Sphere Entertainment has announced its intention to construct the second US-based Sphere at the National Harbor near Washington, DC. The National Harbor Sphere would be built using a combination of public and private funding, including approximately $200 million in state, local, and private incentives, and its development would be contingent on final approvals from Prince George's County and the State of Maryland."
"Compared to the 20,000-person Las Vegas Sphere, the proposed National Harbor venue would be smaller, with a capacity of about 6,000 seats. However, it would feature the same cutting-edge technology, including an Exosphere made of LED panels, a 16K x 16K interior display plane, an immersive sound system, haptic seating, and 4D environmental effects. In addition to its original Las Vegas venue and the proposed National Harbor location, there are also plans to build a Sphere in Abu Dhabi."
