Backstreet Boys announce Israel performance in May

The 90s boy band returns to Israel, much to the satisfaction of its (mostly) female fans

It’s been five long years since the Backstreet Boys last performed in Israel — and for local fans, it’s been a long wait.

This will be the third time in Israel for the beloved nineties band, which staged shows in Ra’anana in 2015 and in Rishon Lezion in 2018.

The boy-turned-man band will perform one show only in Israel, on May 13, returning to Rishon Lezion’s Live Park as part of its upcoming “#DNAWorldTour” that will bring it to Iceland, Africa, Southeast Asia and the Middle East, as well as Europe.

Shabbat-observant fans of the Backstreet Boys Israel Facebook page were concerned that the concert is starting at 7 p.m., the time listed on the ticket sales page, which is an hour before the end of the Sabbath, making it difficult to get to the concert in time.

But a public relations representative for the concert promoters, Live Nation Israel, responded that the doors will open at 7 p.m., and the concert will begin at 9:30 p.m., allowing Sabbath observers to make it to the concert on time.

The band’s 2018 Israel show sold out in four days. Tickets are on sale through Ticketmaster.
