Backstreet Boys on Tour
The pitch-perfect harmonies. The matching outfits and dance moves. The dreamy personas. When they set foot in an arena, the Backstreet Boys are absolutely in their element, belting out a massive catalog of original hits to an outsized audience that screams back every word. Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, AJ McLean and Kevin Richardson have been at it for decades, but even after setting the blueprint for acts like One Direction and 5 Seconds of Summer, their 1993-formed group remains the best-selling boy band of all time. And unlike so many others (including their former direct competition, *NSYNC), Backstreet Boys never quit. They kept making records — adapting their increasingly adult sound to an ever-shifting pop landscape — and kept upping the performance stakes too, taking their NKOTBSB supergroup (with New Kids on the Block) on the road in 2011, and holding down a two-year residency at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas starting in 2017. Their DNA World Tour celebrates their rich history of swooning ballads and get-up-and-dance jams (and yet another No. 1 album in 2019's DNA).
Backstreet Boys in Concert
Despite becoming more or less a five-headed pop machine, the Backstreet Boys' origins were pretty organic. Cousins Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell came up singing in church choirs and at festivals in Lexington, Kentucky, while the other three bonded over their shared love for Prince and old-school R&B after meeting at various acting auditions around Orlando. They came together under the guidance of teen-pop guru Lou Pearlman and emerged in the mid-1990s as radio-smashing global sensations — the quintessential boy band yearning over heartfelt hits like "I Want It That Way" and powering parties with upbeat bops like "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)." Their first two U.S. albums — 1997's Backstreet Boys and 1999's Millennium — also marked the arrival of Swedish superproducer Max Martin, who helped forge a shiny new sound that combined bubblegum pop, classic R&B, hip-hop swing and dance production. The Backstreet Boys' astounding longevity owes as much to maintaining this baseline formula as it does to their ability to pull modern sounds and grown-man themes into the gleaming pop universe they created way back when.

I’ve been a fan since I was a little girl and have always wanted to see them. It was a very special night for me. I felt like a little girl again.
I bought the tickets for the wife. I really didn’t expect to enjoy it, but they actually had a really good performance and I had fun seeing my wife go back in time to her early teens.
Enjoyed another show. Bass was a little bit too loud at the beginning. My daughter was covering her ears the first few sounds. Got better when they finally adjusted it. Enjoy going to shows at the Forum
Experience was awesome! The venue is always great! The Boys sure put on a good show
The 13 year old in me relived all of my youth! The grown woman in me danced and sang and screamed! I had more fun at this concert than should be legally allowed!!!
The guys were so interactive and so good live in person!! Would definitely recommend to anyone and go see the show again myself!!! 100 out of 10 stars!!!!
Great concert. I have seen the Backstreet Boys several times. Very pleased with the show. Thanks for a great concert.
OhhhEmmmGeee!!! The DNA Tour Round 2 was by far THE BEST concert I have EVER attended!!! It was absolutely UNBELIEVABLE!!! Jam-packed from beginning to end!!! I didn’t sit down!!! It was AMAZING!!! I’m already looking for tickets to another nearby show!!! My mom & I are Backstreet Buddies… We have gone to 3 BSB concerts together!!! Black & Blue World Tour & 2 DNA World Tour shows!!! Brian, Kevin, Nick, Howie, & AJ are complete BADASSES!!! Sound (and look) just as good 30 years later!!! We can’t wait till their next show!!!
It was a lot of fun! They still sound great. They are very energetic and kept the audience going the whole show.
Had a great time overall! We danced and sang and loved everything about it. Parked at Gosset Garage next to the Forum and had no trouble getting in. Everything was seamless. Even the exiting traffic flow went smoothly.
The show was great. BSB still have it after all these years. The only thing that bugged me was they came on over an hour late. The tickets stated 7:30 pm and they came on at 8:50 pm. Last time I saw them at the Fedex Forum they had Brian's son as a warmup band. So, they came on later that makes sense. No warmup band this time. I get not all shows start on time but over an hour late is annoying.
I have been a BSB since the very beginning and have never had a chance to see them live in person. My husband bought us two tickets at the last minute when he heard the announcement on the radio. Everything about the concert was perfect!
😂 I had so much fun at the BSB concert. My inner middle schooler screamed like a little girl. So grateful for this experience.
The show said it was going to start at 7:30pm but there was no opening act and BSB didn’t get on stage until 8:45pm. There were no announcements about when it would actually start. I could have visited with my friends in other seats before the show if I would have known. It was just really annoying. I would have loved to have gotten home earlier too. The show went really well when it started though. I loved it. Poor Brian was hoarse from singing or being sick. Love BSB!! 4 stars bc of late start and no communication with audience about it.
The Backstreet Boys STILL got it. It was SUCH an entertaining show, people of all ages dancing and singing along to their songs. HIGHLY recommend!!!
Loved how interactive they were with the audience… they saying all the old songs we know and love plus a few new ones that were awesome as well… would totally go to another concert of theirs!! 100% WORTH IT
The Backstreet Boys are my favorite band! I’m 37 now and I have loved them since I was 12! I did a meet n greet with them,and there concert was absolutely AMAZING as usual! Loved it! Time of my life!!!!!!!!!!
The guys put on a great show start to finish. Our complaint is that the show started and hour and 15 mins late. We stood there waiting for what seemed like forever.
The concert was amazing! The only complaints I have are that there was no opener and they started over an hour late.
The entire show was presented extremely well. The atmosphere was very energetic! The performance was second to none——— Phenomenal!!!!!!!!
