Backstreet’s back, and they’re happily not leaving Las Vegas anytime soon. The iconic boy band has once again tacked on more dates to their blockbuster residency at the Sphere—the massive, immersive entertainment venue (255 Sands Avenue) at the Venetian Resort—adding seven new shows in February 2026.
That means Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson will now light up Sin City for a total of 35 performances, stretching from December through mid-February. This includes New Year’s Eve, Friday the 13th and Valentine's Day for those lucky enough to snag tickets.

Originally planned as just nine concerts, the "Into The Millennium" residency has ballooned into a full-on takeover, driven by demand so relentless the band has already sold out 21 shows to nearly 350,000 fans. The newly announced February gigs will take place on February 5, 6, 7, 11, 13, 14 and 15, with tickets going on sale Friday, August 22 at 11am.
"We asked, you answered," the group said in a post on Instagram. "We couldn’t be more grateful—and we can’t wait to make 2026 larger than life."
And they mean it—the show is no nostalgic cash-in. Yes, fans get the Millennium album front to back, along with era-defining hits like "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)," "Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)," and "As Long As You Love Me." But at the Sphere, it’s all dialed up with wraparound visuals, a spaceship that hovers over the crowd and a soaring platform that lifts the five singers high above the audience. It’s boy-band fantasy colliding with state-of-the-art spectacle.
This is Vegas at its biggest, brightest and most over-the-top—exactly where the band belongs in their 30th year of making fans scream.
