The Backstreet Boys want it that way — and apparently, “that way” is four shows in Toronto.
The millennial-beloved boy band that ruled the pop charts in the ’90s has announced a four-concert residency at Toronto’s Rogers Centre next year.
The shows will take place Feb. 12, 13, 19 and 20, Rogers and Live Nation announced Friday.
Dubbed “Into the Millennium – Homecoming: Live in Canada,” the residency will be the band’s only North American stadium shows of 2027.
The concerts will draw on the group’s 1999 album “Millennium,” which included hits such as “I Want It That Way” and “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back).”
The Backstreet Boys and Canada have a history: the band had their first North American breakthrough in Canada — with 1995’s “We’ve Got It Goin’ On” — before conquering the United States.
“Canada was one of the first places to embrace us,” said member Brian Littrell in a statement, “and the love and support we’ve received from our fans there has meant so much from the very beginning.”
Their music holds a nostalgic pull for Canadian millennials, evidently even Drake, who joined the group onstage during their last concert in Toronto in 2022.
