Backstreet Boys Add Sphere Show Dates

Extending their current tour schedule into summer 2026, The Backstreet Boys have added six new dates to their the Millennium residency at the Las Vegas Sphere on July 16, 17, 18, 23, 24 and 25.

Becoming the first pop act to headline the state-of-the-art venue, the iconic boy-turned-man band launched the Nevada residency in July of last year, and since then, the quintet have played in front of 575,000+ fans across 35 sold-out shows, with audiences regularly arriving dressed in all white in tribute to the cover of their 1999 album Millennium.

Combining the act’s choreography with 360-degree visuals and large-scale effects, the production has earned rave reviews for its use of Sphere’s immersive technology. One of the show’s standout moments sees the Backstreet Boys become the first artists to “fly” through space within the venue, a sequence that has helped position the residency as one of Las Vegas’ most talked-about live experiences.

Though the chart-topping act – consisting of Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, and cousins Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson – previously declined the opportunity to headline the 2001 Super Bowl, opting to sing the US national anthem instead, the legends are now interested in headlining the 2027 Super Bowl halftime show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

During a recent show at the Sphere, AJ asked the crowd “What do you guys think? Backstreet Boys: 2027 Super Bowl Halftime? Let’s make it happen!” “I mean, why not? It’s in Los Angeles, it’s right down the street.”

Tickets for the newly added Vegas dates will roll out in stages. The Backstreet Boys Fan Club presale opens Tuesday, February 24 at 9am PT, followed by the Artist Presale on Wednesday, February 25 at 9am PT. Fans can sign up for Artist Presale access through Ticketmaster until Sunday, February 22 at 10pm PT, with no code required. General onsale begins Friday, February 27 at 9am PT via backstreetboys.com.
