The Backstreet Boys have added a ninth Toronto show to their 2027 Rogers Centre residency, taking the stand to a record nine nights. The newly announced date — February 28, 2027, revealed around October 7 — stretches the run to nine concerts, which, according to reports, makes it the most shows played by a single tour at the venue, topping the six-night stands of Taylor Swift and The Weeknd. The general public sale for the added date goes live on Ticketmaster today, Friday, October 9, at 10 a.m. ET.

The Nine-Show Stand
Residency: The Toronto dates are part of "Into the Millennium – Homecoming: Live in Canada," the band's Canadian stadium residency. These will be the Backstreet Boys' only 2027 North American stadium shows, following their Las Vegas Sphere run, which wraps on January 2, 2027 (per Exclaim and menafn/GlobeNewswire).
Dates: Per SSBCrack, the stand now covers February 12, 13, 19, 20, 21, 26 and 27, plus the newly added February 28. Exclaim's earlier update listed eight dates including February 14 — so outlets' full date lists differ by that one date. What is confirmed is the nine-show total: according to reports, no single tour has played more nights at Rogers Centre.
The reported record puts the group ahead of Taylor Swift and The Weeknd, whose tours each played six shows at the stadium — though the record could not be independently confirmed and is presented here as reported.
Setlist & Tickets
Fans can expect the Millennium album performed in full, alongside the group's biggest hits, including "I Want It That Way" ("I Want It That Way" lyrics) and "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)," plus rarities such as "It's Gotta Be You" and "The Perfect Fan" (per menafn).
Tickets: The general public sale for the ninth show starts today, Friday, October 9, at 10 a.m. ET on Ticketmaster (per Exclaim).
Canada Connection
Band member Brian Littrell has pointed to the group's long bond with Canadian fans, saying: "Canada was one of the first places to embrace us…" (as quoted by Exclaim and menafn).
That early embrace has clearly lasted: the nine-night Toronto stand comes as the group also celebrates a massive European run, including their 10 Düsseldorf shows already covered on this site.
