Nick, Kevin, AJ, Howie and Brian — aka the Backstreet Boys — just extended their ‘Millennium’ residency at Las Vegas Sphere for the fourth time, adding six dates in late July and early August 2026 to their run.
“YOU CALLED. WE ANSWERED!” the eight-time Grammy nominees shared via Instagram after making the announcement.
The fivesome will now play 12 (!) summer Sin City shows. Their new Sphere concerts take place on:
Thursday, July 308 p.m.Friday, July 318 p.m.Saturday, Aug. 18 p.m.Thursday, Aug. 68 p.m.Friday, Aug. 78 p.m.Saturday, Aug. 88 p.m.
Other recently-added gigs are set to go down July 16-25.
In total, after their summer ’26 stint at Sphere, their 47 concerts will put them behind The Eagles (58), and Dead and Company (48) for the third most at the eye-popping venue.
At past shows, BSB performed approximately 25 songs a night based on our findings at Set List FM. That includes their best-selling 1999 album “Millennium” in full along with other hits from their storied career 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.”
Yet, the real attraction may be the jaw-dropping, wraparound, immersive visuals that elevate the show from mere concert to full-on spectacle.
According to the Neon Review Journal, the show opens with “a rocket ship blasting out of the venue and becoming a spacecraft.” They also noted “the ‘Siberia’ winterscape, with the guys’ singing faces embedded in snow is an instant classic” and “during ‘I Want It That Way,’ the stage that ascends 70 feet above the crowd, supported by four thin cables, is as suspenseful as any moment in a Cirque show.”

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.
