We take a look at some of their best ever performances.
The Backstreet Boys won over New Zealanders, as reported by the NZ Herald.
They performed like they did in the 90s, with their signature energy and chemistry, starting off strong with 'I Wanna Be With You'.
The crowd, including millennials who grew up with 'Shape of My Heart', and their families, were all present in newly bought merchandise.
The Hyde Park performance was outstanding for a few reasons.
Firstly, the atmosphere was electric, with a diverse crowd of fans all singing along to the Backstreet Boys songs.
Secondly, over 60,000 people belted out the group's most famous song, "I Want It That Way" creating a spine-tingling moment.
Finally, when it started raining after the band's performance of "Drowning" instead of dampening spirits, the crowd danced and sang even louder, making for an unforgettable experience.
The two-hour DNA World Tour show was infused with nostalgia, featuring throwbacks to the hits that made the Backstreet Boys famous, newer songs, and reminders of time passing.
Despite their age, the energy from the stage was undeniable, with meticulously honed choreography and soaring vocals that remain unchanged since the 90s.
Their harmonies are part of their DNA, and they continue to deliver a memorable show after 40 concerts since the tour began in June.
The Rod Laver Arena performance was one of true 90's Fashion.
The synchronised step-tap, grapevine-tap dance moves, the smooth harmonies, the poses, the tilting microphone stands in unison – every aspect of the show is straight out of the mid-’90s, but in a way that’s genuine and truthful, not cynically nostalgic.
After the announcement that Kevin Richardson was going to be leaving the group, everyone thought that it was the end for the iconic boy band. But with the power vested by Oprah, she brought them back together on her show for an incredible performance of “I Want it that Way”.

At the 2017 ACM Awards, Florida Georgia Line and the Backstreet Boys closed the show with a memorable performance that showcased their unique blend of country and electronic sounds.
Despite the unlikely pairing, the two bands delivered an electrifying and mesmerizing performance.
