^1 Began with Trey on acoustic guitar.

The band took the stage while pre-recorded music similar to "Plasma" played, before beginning the song. During "Ghost," the neon-colored outlines of three giant robots appeared to tower over the band, with their facial expressions varying and their arms and bodies swaying slowly. The three robots were then replaced by one massive robot, with spotlights utilized to make it appear as if beams of light were coming from the robot's eyes, before the original three robots returned for the remainder of the jam.

During "Divided Sky," the dome became a view of a sea of clouds, with patches of blue sky above. As the clouds moved, their appearance varied from purple sunset hues to dark and stormy, with the movement stopping and all of the color fading during the pause before returning for the rest of the song. Page teased "Linus and Lucy" at the end of "Divided Sky." Trey began "Shade" on acoustic guitar.

During "Shade," an eclipsed star was shown behind the band, with its corona of changing colors visible and a silhouette of the band in the center. During "Sea of Stars," the dome became filled with a curtain of gold-colored four-point stars, which twinkled and waved in front of roiling clouds. During "2001," the dome became a starfield before being illuminated by replicated images of the stage lights. Mike teased "Plasma" during "Light."

During "Ether Edge," a string of umbrellas with colored drops trailing beneath were raised to either side of the stage. The umbrellas were lowered again during "Piper." During "First Tube," the dome again became a starfield, this time with a ring of stars centered above the stage slowly swirling. As the second "verse" of "First Tube" began, a white vortex appeared in this area. As the stars in its orbit began to become multicolored, the vortex pulled in their light and created flowing, rainbow-hued ribbons that grew as the jam progressed.

Prior to "More," Trey thanked the production team behind the Sphere shows, and said that he thinks the band will return to the venue. After "Slave," the band gathered at the front of the stage to take bows and have a picture taken in front of the crowd. This show was connected to the other three with each night's setlist tied into a state of matter. This performance's matter type was plasma.
