Backstreet Boys announce four-show Toronto stadium residency for 2027
The band's only North American stadium shows next year will take place at Rogers Centre in February.
TORONTO — The Backstreet Boys will perform a four-concert residency at Toronto's Rogers Centre in February 2027, their only North American stadium shows that year.
Rogers and Live Nation Canada announced the "Into the Millennium, Homecoming: Live in Canada" series on Oct. 2, 2026. The concerts are scheduled for Feb. 12, 13, 19 and 20, 2027.
"Fans from around the world are excited to see this iconic group live, so we jumped at the opportunity to bring the Backstreet Boys to Canada," said Terrie Tweddle, chief brand and communications officer for Rogers.

Rogers customers get exclusive presale access to tickets starting Oct. 5, 2026, with the general public sale beginning Oct. 9. Customers can begin claiming their presale code starting at 7 a.m. on Oct. 2.
The shows will feature the band's 1999 Millennium album performed live, alongside greatest hits like "I Want It That Way" and "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" and rarer live tracks such as "It's Gotta Be You" and "The Perfect Fan."
"Canada was one of the first places to embrace us, and the love and support we've received from our fans there has meant so much from the very beginning," said Backstreet Boys member Brian Littrell. "Coming back feels incredibly special. It is a chance for all of us to celebrate the memories we've made together and create some new ones."
Rogers is the presenting sponsor of the residency. Through its Beyond the Seat program, customers will also have access to premium experiences and chances to win VIP meet-and-greets and thousands of tickets, including grand prizes with airfare and accommodation in Toronto.
The company also launched a TV ad today featuring the band and Canadian actor Michael Cera to promote customer perks, including presale access.
"Few artists have a connection with Canadian fans as enduring and meaningful as the Backstreet Boys," said Erik Hoffman, president of music for Live Nation Canada. "We're thrilled to welcome them back to Toronto for this special Homecoming series and celebrate a bond that has spanned generations."
The Toronto series follows the band's Las Vegas Sphere residency, where they are the first pop group to play at the venue with 47 sold-out shows, and a current sold-out 10-show stadium run in Düsseldorf, Germany, which launched last week. The German shows revived the band's 1999 tour entrance, with the group soaring in on hoverboards to open with "Larger Than Life."
VIP packages and fan experience
Official concert and VIP hotel experience packages will be available starting Oct. 5 through the Rogers presale via the direct-to-fan experience company Please & Thank You.
Packages include premium reserved seating at Rogers Centre, hotel accommodations, priority entry and exclusive lounge access at a fan pop-up and at the show, a BSB-curated gifting kit and Please & Thank You's on-site concierge service. Meet-and-greets are not included in any package.
The band is also opening the Backstreet Boys YYZ Terminal in Toronto, an immersive fan pop-up inspired by the Millennium album's airport cover. It will house the official BSB merch store with exclusive Homecoming collectibles, Millennium-era photo moments and host fan events throughout the residency.
The Backstreet Boys are the best-selling boy band in history, with worldwide sales exceeding 130 million records.
