Due to phenomenal demand, the Backstreet Boys, one of the most iconic and best-selling bands of all time, have added two additional dates, October 3rd + 4th, to their very special residency at Merkur Spiel Arena in Düsseldorf, Germany, beginning September 25th, 2026. The “Into The Millennium- Homecoming: Live in Germany” performances will be the band’s only European shows of 2026 and mark a special return to the country that gave them their first-ever platinum record with “I’ll Never Break Your Heart,” a country they called home 30 years ago.
Long before they became a global phenomenon, Europe- especially Germany- was where the Backstreet Boys first found their footing. They recorded some of their biggest hits overseas and spent their first years performing across Europe, building a loyal audience show by show. German fans were among the very first to pack venues, call radio stations, and wait outside hotels, giving the group an early glimpse of what their career would become.
That same loyalty that filled clubs in the mid-90s is now filling stadiums. The response to the Düsseldorf dates underscores just how deeply the Backstreet Boys’ roots in Germany still run and why this return feels especially meaningful.
“When we talk about this being a homecoming, it’s because Germany is where everything clicked for us” Brian Littrell says, “It’s where our dream stopped being hypothetical and became something real. Coming back for these shows feels full circle.”
The announcement of the Düsseldorf concert series follows the band’s unprecedented success with their ‘Into The Millennium’ Sphere show in Las Vegas, with thousands of fans attending over 20 performances so far. The Sphere residency received rave reviews over the summer with Billboarddeclaring, “The group arguably put on their best performance yet at The Sphere” and that “the gentlemen’s vocals shined. They didn’t miss a note or a beat.” USA Today heralded that “this was more than a mere concert, it was a thrill ride,” and a “romp through pristinely sung ballads overflowing with yearning and gleaming pop anthems buffed to a melodic sheen.”
Fans attending “Into the Millennium – Homecoming: Live in Germany” can expect an unforgettable, stadium-sized celebration of the Backstreet Boys’ legacy. The group will bring their iconic, five-time GRAMMY-nominated Millennium album to life on stage, featuring beloved classics like “I Want It That Way,” and “Larger Than Life” along with a powerful lineup of their greatest hits.
