BACKSTREET’S BACK: ACCLAIMED “INTO THE MILLENNIUM” SPHERE RESIDENCY EXTENDS INTO SUMMER 2026 WITH SIX NEW SHOWS
GENERAL ONSALE BEGINS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27 AT 9AM PT AT BACKSTREETBOYS.COM
(Las Vegas, NV - February 17, 2026) – Backstreet Boys have announced six new summer 2026 dates on their highly successful Into the Millennium residency at Sphere in Las Vegas. Produced by Live Nation, the newly added shows will take place July 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, and 25.
Since launching the residency last July as the first pop act to headline Sphere, the group has performed to over 575,000 fans across 35 sold-out dates, delivering a one-of-a-kind experience inside the groundbreaking venue. Night after night, fans filled the venue dressed in all white — a nod to the iconic cover of the band’s 1999 blockbuster album, Millennium.
The residency has earned widespread acclaim for its electrifying performances, state-of-the-art visuals, and boundary-pushing production, utilizing Sphere’s immersive technology. Highlights include the Backstreet Boys’ signature choreography paired with stunning 360-degree visuals, as well as a landmark moment in which the band became the first artists to physically fly through space inside the venue, cementing the show as a must-see live experience.
Billboard declared, “The group arguably put on their best performance yet at The Sphere” and that “the gentlemen’s vocals shined. They didn’t miss a note or a beat.” USA Today heralded that “this was more than a mere concert, it was a thrill ride,” and a “romp through pristinely sung ballads overflowing with yearning and gleaming pop anthems buffed to a melodic sheen.” The Hollywood Reporter exclaimed that “Into the Millennium’s a game-changer for Sphere” and that the “Backstreet Boys pushed the limits of Las Vegas’ Sphere with mind-boggling residency launch.”
