While the news is bound to get followers across the country jumping, the return of BSB to Abu Dhabi shouldn’t come as a surprise — believe it or not, the boy band’s last concert became the quickest-selling arena show in the UAE, with Etihad Arena on Yas Island (which houses up to 18,000 people) absolutely packed with fans of all ages.

Starting at AED 295, the Backstreet Boys DNA World Tour 2024 tickets will go on pre-sale on Thursday, August 8 at 12pm. On Friday, August 9, the tickets will go on general sale here. The concert itself will be taking place on Wednesday, October 23.

Presented by Live Nation Middle East in partnership with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi, and Miral, the upcoming Backstreet Boys concert will see four of the band’s much-loved members — Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, and Brian Littrell — come together to celebrate their incredible musical legacy with songs that forever changed the trajectory of pop music across the globe. Along with global hits like “Everybody”, “The Call”, and “Larger Than Life”, the band will also serenade its thousands of fans with its softer, more heartfelt tracks including “I Want It That Way”, “As Long As You Love Me”, and “Shape of My Heart”. While the 2023 concert saw all five members of BSB share a stage, the 2024 edition will miss Kevin Richardson, who unfortunately will not be joining due to scheduling conflicts.

Along with that bittersweet feeling of nostalgia, the Backstreet Boys’ concerts continue to bring together a whole family of pop enthusiasts thanks to their larger-than-life sets, infectious energy, and perfect-to-a-fault dance sequences. As the best-selling boy band in history, Nick, Howie, AJ, Brian and Kevin have given the world countless #1 hits, taken part in several record-setting tours, and in turn earned numerous awards and the love of millions. It’s safe to say that despite Kevin’s absence, this will be one of the year’s most exciting musical events in the UAE.
