The Backstreet Boys have added two more dates, March 5 and 6, 2027, to Into the Millennium – Homecoming: Live in Canada at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, taking the stand to eleven shows and setting a new venue record for the most shows played by a single act on a single tour.
The full run now covers February 12, 13 and 14; February 19, 20 and 21; February 26, 27 and 28; and March 5 and 6, 2027. The two new March dates extend the group's already record-setting Toronto residency into a second month.

Dates: February 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 21, 26, 27 and 28, plus March 5 and 6, 2027 - eleven nights at Rogers Centre, Toronto.
The growth: the stand began with four announced shows and grew to nine as presales sold through, with the ninth date covered in our Backstreet Boys add 9th Toronto show report. The two new March additions now take the total to eleven.
Presales and on-sale: the Rogers Customers presale began October 5, followed by BSB Army and Ticketmaster presales; the general sale opened October 9 at 10 a.m. ET via Ticketmaster, with an eight-ticket limit per order.
Presented by: Rogers, promoted by Live Nation Canada.
Announcing the new dates on social media, the band wrote: "It's. All. Happening. You guys have blown through these tickets, and we truly didn't know the demand would be THIS BIG, so we are adding TWO MORE SHOWS on March 5th & 6th..."
The Record
According to reports, the eleven-show stand gives the Backstreet Boys the most shows played by a single act on a single tour at Rogers Centre, passing the six-show stands of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour and The Weeknd's After Hours Til Dawn.
Under Billboard Canada's definition of the record, The Weeknd retains the Canadian-artist record while the Backstreet Boys hold the overall single-tour mark - though the record could not be independently confirmed.
Swift, whose Taylor Swift's Patient Zero recently topped the German charts, previously held a share of the venue record with her six Eras Tour nights.
Tickets And Tour Details
Aside from their Las Vegas Sphere shows, the Toronto dates are the band's only announced 2027 North American stadium shows. The production celebrates the 1999 Millennium era, built around "I Want It That Way" and "Everybody" with rarities such as "It's Gotta Be You" and "The Perfect Fan" - read the 'I Want It That Way' song story for more on the signature single.
A "YYZ Terminal" pop-up is planned around the stand, with exclusive merch and photo opportunities for fans.
Showtimes have not been officially confirmed. todocanada.ca lists 8 p.m., but that should be treated as unconfirmed until the band or the venue announces the schedule.
Toronto is not the band's only residency-scale run: they are also playing their 10 Düsseldorf shows in Germany.
