Pop royalty is making one of the most exciting comebacks of the decade: the Backstreet Boys are returning to the global stage in 2026 with a landmark run of performances celebrating their legacy and ongoing appeal. After decades as one of the world’s most beloved boy bands, the group—Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, and Kevin Richardson—continues to captivate audiences with both nostalgia and high-energy productions.
The cornerstone of their 2026 live schedule is the extended Into The Millennium residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas. Billed as a spectacular, immersive experience, this residency celebrates the 25th anniversary of their iconic Millennium album and blends cutting-edge visuals with classic hits like I Want It That Way and Larger Than Life. Due to overwhelming fan demand, the Backstreet Boys added seven new February 2026 dates to the residency, bringing fans together again in one of the world’s most advanced performance venues.
But the excitement doesn’t stop in Vegas. In a move that truly honors their global roots, the band announced a very special series of shows in Düsseldorf, Germany—titled Into The Millennium – Homecoming: Live in Germany. Germany holds deep significance for the group as one of the first countries to embrace them during their rise to fame. Originally six shows were planned, but due to continued demand a tenth and final date was added to the run in autumn 2026—marking these as their only European performances of the year.
With a blend of nostalgia, powerful vocals, and state-of-the-art production, the Backstreet Boys’ 2026 performances are more than concerts—they are celebrations of a career that has spanned decades and touched millions worldwide.
