U2 will kick off a 2024 run of 15 dates in Las Vegas on January 26 to wrap up its “U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere” residency. In conjunction with their return to Vegas, the Irish rock legends are launching a new Instagram broadcast channel and they want fans to help them come up with a name for it.

According to a post on U2.com, the channel feature will help the band “communicate with fans in a more intimate way by sharing exclusive content directly” to fans’ Instagram messages.
U2 is encouraging fans to share their suggestions in the comments section of the announcement post on its official website. The band is asking fans to “feel free to be as clever as you’d like,” adding, “puns are welcome!”
In the post, the group shares some name ideas of its own, including “You, Too,” “Zoo Stationary,” and “Spherical.”
U2 will choose its four favorite name suggestions, and a poll on its Instagram Stories will determine a winner. The winning channel name will be revealed around the time U2’s next residency run kicks off at the Sphere venue.
