INTO THE MILLENNIUM Sphere Residency to Add Three New Year Dates

Backstreet Boys are set to add three new performances to their INTO THE MILLENNIUM residency at Sphere in Las Vegas, extending the run into New Year's Weekend. Produced by Live Nation, the newly added shows respond to continued fan demand for the residency, which launched in 2025 as the first pop act to headline the venue.

The newly added shows will take place December 31, 2026 and January 1 and 2, 2027.

Since the residency launched in July 2025 as the first pop act to headline Sphere, the group has performed for more than 750,000 fans across 47 sold-out shows, delivering a one-of-a-kind experience inside the groundbreaking venue. Night after night, fans have filled the venue dressed in all white—a nod to the iconic cover of the band's 1999 blockbuster album, Millennium.

The residency has earned widespread acclaim for its electrifying performances, state-of-the-art visuals, and boundary-pushing production, utilizing Sphere's immersive technology. Highlights include the Backstreet Boys' signature choreography paired with stunning visuals, as well as a landmark moment in which the band became the first artists to physically fly through space inside the venue, cementing the show as a must-see live experience.
