THE LIVE SHOW
What Backstreet Boys concerts are like
A Backstreet Boys concert is a choreographed nostalgia party. The five members perform the dance routines fans remember from the videos, and the arena sings every word of Everybody (Backstreet's Back), As Long as You Love Me, Larger than Life and Quit Playing Games (With My Heart).
I Want It That Way is saved for the end and often sung by the crowd almost entirely on its own. The members joke with each other and the audience, and the ballads such as Incomplete and Shape of My Heart show off the harmonies that made them famous.
Tips for the Düsseldorf show
- Learn the Everybody dance moves; the crowd copies them.
- Stay to the end for I Want It That Way.
New to the music? Millennium and the Greatest Hits: Chapter One collection hold almost every song the crowd sings.

Travelling to Düsseldorf for the concert
Because it is a Saturday show, the concert crowd lands on top of the usual weekend visitors, so hotels in Düsseldorf are worth booking early.
