Backstreet Boys Are Bringing Pop to the Sphere With ‘Into the Millennium’ Residency

The Sphere is going pop this summer. In July, the Las Vegas venue will host the Backstreet Boys for their nine-date Into the Millennium residency.

Beginning Friday, July 11, the band will perform music from their 1999 album Millennium, as well as hits from throughout their discography. “We’re heading ‘Into The Millennium’ once again,” the band wrote on Instagram. “Relive your Backstreet Boys Y2K memories, but this time… LARGER THAN LIFE at @SphereVegas starting this July!”

Presale for the residency begins on Tuesday, Feb. 18 ahead of a general sale on Friday, Feb. 21 via the official Backstreet Boys website.

The Backstreet Boys are only the seventh act to host a residency at the Sphere. U2 have performed 40 shows at the venue, while Phish played four, and Dead & Company played 30 with plans for 18 more this spring. Eagles and Anyma are both in the middle of 31 and 12-date runs at the Sphere, respectively. In May, Kenny Chesney will become the first country act to headline there with 15 shows.

“This will be a quantum leap forward in the sense of what a concert can be,” U2 guitarist the Edge told Rolling Stone before the band performed the first-ever Sphere concert. “It gives you the opportunity to bring people back in time, and to worlds that are completely computer-generated, but completely believable. It’s a new genre of immersive experience, and a new art form.”
