THE BOYS OF SUMMER

The Backstreet Boys will head out on a second North American tour this summer, playing 45 dates over three months. Tour wraps at the Hollywood Bowl.

Produced by Live Nation, the guys will be playing arenas and amphitheaters beginning 7/10 at Jones Beach in New York and ending 10/9 at the Bowl. Tickets go on sale Friday.

The first leg was the group’s biggest arena tour in 18 years. Last summer, they played 44 shows and pulled in more than $50m. The DNA World Tour has already visited five continents.

“We play our hits, we dance our asses off and we do it because we love our fans,” says AJ McLean. “We can’t wait to take this show on the road again this summer.”
