The Backstreet Boys just can’t quit Sin City (or playing games with our hearts).
After seemingly wrapping their Las Vegas Sphere residency on Sunday, Feb. 15, Nick, Howie, AJ, Kevin and Brian announced Backstreet will be back yet again in July 2026.
Their six new concerts at the visually-spectacular venue will take place on:
Thursday, July 16
8 p.m.
Friday, July 17
8 p.m.
Saturday, July 18
8 p.m.
Thursday, July 23
8 p.m.
Friday, July 24
8 p.m.
Saturday, July 25
8 p.m.
“We’ve been seeing your posts, and it’s very clear that you guys do not want the party to be over at Sphere, so we worked hard to quickly add SIX more ‘Into The Millennium’ shows this summer cause there ain’t no party like a Backstreet party,” the fivesome shared on Instagram.
At their past Sin City concerts, the legendary boy band delivered 25 or so songs at each show including the “Millennium” album in full, although not in order, based on our findings at Set List FM.
Outside of “Millennium” fan favorites like “I Want It That Way,” “Larger Than Life” and “Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely,” “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back),” “Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)” and “As Long as You Love Me” are just a few of the most notable tracks to make the cut.
However, the wraparound, 360-degree, immersive visuals at Sphere is what separates this stage show apart from past concerts.
“I’ll admit that I was skeptical about Sphere and thought that it might be gimmicky, but it was anything but,” PureWow raved. “The effects were incredible and, at times, intense. The crowd especially went wild at the giant flip phones and Tetris blocks (we were a bunch of millennials after all).”

Backstreet Boys new music
On Feb. 14, 2025, Backstreet Boys released the single “Hey.”
The emotionally-charged track was originally written for the band’s 2019 album “DNA” but ultimately didn’t fit in with the album.
“We wanted to hold on to it and [then] this announcement happened, it was like, ‘Oh my gosh, what better way to present a brand-new song?’ So it turned out perfect,” Brian Littrell shared with The Today Show.
If you’d like to hear the guys’ latest heartbreaking bop, you can find “Hey” here.
