Backstreet Boys Sphere Las Vegas residency

Overview

The Backstreet Boys’ ‘Into the Millennium’ residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas has expanded following its July 2025 launch, which commemorated the 25th anniversary of their 1999 album. The residency marks the first time a pop act has headlined the venue, utilizing its advanced visual and sound technology to perform the group’s greatest hits.

After an initial run that saw over 750,000 fans attend 47 sold-out performances, the residency has undergone several extensions. Following an initial leg, the group returned in late December for a 14-show run that included New Year’s Eve performances. Band members AJ McLean and Howie Dorough noted that the New Year’s Eve shows might feature special elements and modified start times to accommodate the countdown.

Additional shows have been scheduled for November, with a second residency set to run through December and into 2027. Attendees have described the residency as a communal experience that combines nostalgia with the immersive capabilities of the Sphere.
