New Kids on the Block are a multi-platinum-selling boy band formed in Dorchester, Massachusetts. Featuring Jonathan Knight, Jordan Knight, Donnie Wahlberg, Joey McIntyre and Danny Wood, NKOTB became a singing, dancing fivesome in 1984 and hit the top of the Billboard 200 a few years later with the release of their 1988 sophomore album Hangin’ Tough, which spawned hit singles “You Got It (The Right Stuff),” “I’ll Be Loving You (Forever),” “Hangin’ Tough” and “Cover Girl.” At the dawn of the ‘90s, NKOTB scored a second No. 1 album with 1990’s Step By Step and the following year became the first music group in history to headline a Super Bowl halftime show. Their success paved the way for future generations of teen pop sensations like Take That, *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, One Direction and others. After initially disbanding in 1994, the quintet reunited in 2008 and have since released two more albums: 2008’s The Block and 2013’s 10, as well as an updated re-release of their 1999 greatest hits compilation.

Full immersive weekend of everything New Kids on the Block!
Their show was beyond perfection! The songs, the interaction with the crowd, the closeness to us. These guys give us everything!
It was an awesome experience. I would do it again next year. The energy was high and the Nkotb put pn an awesome show. They truly do think of their fans. I appreciate them. They try to make it special for everyone. You dont want to even go to the bathroom cause you will miss something fun amd wonderful. This is a definite go to event
The concert was absolutely electric!! So high energy and it was wonderful having no other acts for this event. The panels were so well done. Everyone was laughing and crying right along with the guys. It was quite emotional hearing where they were during the recordings. Prom was okay. It was great having the guys there but it was pretty chaotic with the selfie chasing Blockheads trying to get to the guys. The softball game was a fun event too. I loved that they chose fans to be part of the teams. I’m sure they will never forget those moments. The town of Rosemont was a great place for this event.
This event totally blown my mind. I totally exceeded my expectations. I had such a great time. I would definitely go to BlockCon again! JUST WOW
I loved everything about this weekend with the New Kids. I just didn't like the "food" that was served at the "brunch" on Sunday.
Everything about the weekend was magical and exciting! The guys put on the best show I have ever seen. They tried in every way to please their fans.
This weekend was everything! We got to hear, not just the hits, but also some of the lesser known classics at the concert. The Saturday panels gave us insight and their thoughts during that iconic rise to fame. Then, the prom gave us all the chance to relive our prom dreams with NKOTB as the prom kings. Sunday’s muah ball game was a nice way to close out the weekend. I hope this becomes a yearly event! I can’t wait for the next one.
Best weekend ever. Wonderful experience and great chance to get to know the guys better.
The absolute best event I’ve ever been to!!! NKOTB 4 EVER!!!
Overall it was an amazing idea but the execution was not. Some was on the organizers and some on the attendees. The parking was not clear but like most events the NKOTB did not show on time but were sure to be done at the appropriate time which was frustrating. As for the attendees there were enough whom need to learn respect and just being a adult and I think it would have made the experience a little better- overall I would give a 7/10 and remember it was the first ever event
- Amazing photo ops set up throughout the Rosemont Theater including stage set, photos, artifacts, a confetti machine, wardrobe, and the toy boxes where some captured an phot with their fav NKOTB and much more. -Perfect location walking distance from food, events. Ideal for a no car weekend. -Epic concert for confetti and oldies but goodies. Extremely interactive. -Panels is where #’s were made that will carry on for years to come. We Laughed, cried and watched videos while hearing all the details. There was even a sleeping bag party. - Impact Field was a great location for the game. The game began in the 7th had the national anthem, sweet Caroline, take me out to the ball game, and selfies with Donnie. - #IAmThankful BlockCon2 can’t wait. Prom was OK- loved dressing up and the decor.
This was bar none the best concert they have ever done!!! I can't wait until the next one.
Of course people will think that I’m biased but trust me, Dutch people are hard to please! This event was amazing for the first time! It was something especially designed for Blockheads and it showed. From the concerts with a lot of deep cuts to serious talks in the different panels. Combined with a great party at night and a kick ass farewell event. And don’t forget the exhibition with all kinds of memorablia and merch and other fun stuff. Sure there are few things that need a bit of improvement but you know how it is, you learn while you go. On to Blockcon 2024!!!
Absolutely a fun time! NKOTB cruise on land! Can’t wait for the next BlockCon
The 1st ever BLOCKCON was outstanding. I knew going into the event it was gonna be something special and it surely did not disappoint. The new kids on the block did an amazing job as always. I enjoyed it more than words can describe!
Best concert I’ve seen yet! Panel discussions were hysterical and I learned some new things about the group! Would definitely go again.
Honestly they were truly genuinely good people. They all were gracious and made you feel special. If you’re not a fan, you should be. They put on an amazing show, made you laugh, cry and feel like you mattered.
I danced. I sang. I laughed. I cried! This NKOTB convention was truly a great experience. I’ve been a “Blockhead” since 1989, when I was only 10 years old. I’ve been to three concerts (one with VIP/Meet & Greet), the 2022 NKOTB cruise, and now this first fan convention. The convention concert was EPIC! The panels were nostalgic, comedic, informative and very enjoyable. The prom was so special and entertaining! Even the farewell softball game was fun. While I didn’t pursue any interactions or “selfies” with the guys, they were all over the place and interacting with their fans as much as they could. I’m so thankful that I got to be there!
This was an amazing weekend for New Kids' fans everywhere! What an awesome idea to create a weekend where fans can get an intimate look at the group. The concert was fantastic! What a great trip down memory lane for life-long fans! The panels were amazing! What laughs we all had together. I feel closer to the group after hearing the stories that they shared with us. The game on Sunday was a lot of fun. I only wish there was more time to get pictures with the boys.
