Pop history is officially being rewritten as Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC announce their long-awaited co-headlining spectacle, The Boyband Legacy Tour, set to dominate 2026. For the first time ever, two of the most iconic groups of the late ’90s and early 2000s will share one stage for a full-scale global run, promising synchronized choreography, soaring harmonies, and the kind of nostalgia that defined a generation. Fans who grew up choosing sides can finally celebrate both legends in one unforgettable night, as the tour promises collaborative performances alongside each group’s biggest hits.
The North American leg kicks off in Orlando on May 8, 2026, before heading to Atlanta, New York City, Boston, Toronto, Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Seattle. Stadiums are expected to transform into high-energy time capsules, complete with cinematic visuals, elevated runways, and rotating headline sets that ensure both groups command equal spotlight. Industry insiders are already predicting record-breaking ticket demand as presale registrations surge across multiple cities within hours of the announcement.
Following the U.S. and Canada dates, the tour will cross the Atlantic for massive European shows in London, Dublin, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Milan, and Madrid throughout July 2026. Additional stops in Sydney and Melbourne are confirmed for August, with Tokyo wrapping up the international run shortly after. Each night is rumored to close with a combined encore featuring mashups of “I Want It That Way,” “Bye Bye Bye,” “Larger Than Life,” and “It’s Gonna Be Me,” creating a finale designed to send fans into full nostalgia overload.
With anticipation reaching fever pitch worldwide, The Boyband Legacy Tour officially launches on May 8, 2026, marking a historic moment more than two decades in the making and uniting millions of fans under one roof to celebrate the music, memories, and magic that defined pop’s golden era.
