The Backstreet Boys are back — and this time, they’ve made history

The Backstreet Boys are back

On July 11, the beloved pop group became the first pop act to perform at the Sphere in Las Vegas. With a sold-out crowd and stunning visuals, the group launched their “Into the Millennium” residency with a 25-song set that thrilled fans.

A Night of Pop Nostalgia and Visual Magic

The show opened with the high-energy hit “Larger Than Life”, instantly setting the mood for the night. Over the next two hours, Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Kevin Richardson, Brian Littrell, and Howie Dorough delivered hit after hit, reminding everyone why they ruled the charts in the late ’90s and early 2000s.

From classics like “I Want It That Way”, “Shape of My Heart”, and “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)”, to deep cuts like “Siberia”, the group kept fans on their feet.

New Songs and a Nod to ‘Millennium’

The Backstreet Boys also used the stage to debut new music, including “Hey” from their just-released album Millennium 2.0. They also paid tribute to their iconic 1999 album, “Millennium”, a record that defined their legacy in pop music.

Sphere’s Tech Takes the Show to the Next Level

Thanks to the Sphere’s jaw-dropping visuals and sound, the performance felt like a full-blown experience. The band used 360-degree graphics, giant floating discs, and recreated the memorable visuals from their 1996 track “Get Down (You’re The One for Me).”

It wasn’t just a concert. It was a visual journey.

20 More Shows to Go

The residency, titled “Into the Millennium”, continues with 20 more shows through August 24. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or new to the BSB magic, this concert is a must-see.
