The pop quintet – consisting of Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, AJ McLean and Kevin Richardson – was to reside at the Zappos Theater in Las Vegas in the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in November and December. The A Very Backstreet Christmas Party dates should be the group’s “first Christmas shows, filled with classic holiday favorites, new originals and their biggest hits,” the act said on the act’s website.
Ticket refunds for Las Vegas residents are issued automatically at the time of purchase.
The 12-show run was slated to appear at the Zappos Theater three years after the band’s record-breaking Backstreet Boys: Larger Than Life residency. The group’s residence raised $ 34.4 million from the 62 shows they staged at the iconic Vegas venue in 2017 and 2018, according to Billboard Boxscore.
In their message to fans, the Backstreet Boys said they have been “working hard on their upcoming Christmas album” for the past six months. “We’re so excited and proud of what we have and how it all comes together. We believe that this is one of our best creations and that this creation deserves the best possible scenario and is prepared for success. “
The boy band concluded, “Although we are disappointed, we know this is the best and we can’t wait to share the magic of this album with all of you when the time is right!”
