The Backstreet Boys return to the Sphere for holiday shows in Las Vegas
The group Backstreet Boys has a confirmed presence again at the Las Vegas Sphere for New Year’s Eve celebrations, with a series of three performances between December 31, 2026 and January 2, 2027. The news was released on August 11, 2026.
This is not the first time that the boy band has spent New Year’s Eve at the venue, having already performed at Sphere the previous New Year. With the inclusion of these new events, the Backstreet Boys will reach the milestone of 60 performances at the arena, placing them just 12 shows behind the Eagles, the group with the most shows at the complex. Their “Into The Millennium” tour was pioneering, being the first pop show to headline Sphere’s schedule, debuting in July 2025 and solidifying the band as one of the main names to perform at the innovative space.

New Gibson store could include space for Las Vegas shows
A new Gibson Garage guitar store is scheduled to open in 2027, located in the Miracle Mile Shops inside Planet Hollywood. Gibson said the property would occupy 9,000 square feet, but the company’s building permit application was approved for a 22,000-square-foot area.
Although there is no official confirmation from the company, the difference in square footage suggests the possible construction of a performance space of approximately 13,000 square feet. If realized, this venue could host intimate shows by touring guitarists, especially those who have sponsorship deals with Gibson.
