The Backstreet Boys will headline the inaugural official Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Afterparty at Sphere on Nov. 21, adding a major live music attraction to race weekend in Las Vegas. The post-race event will take place following the Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix and marks the first time Sphere has hosted the race’s official afterparty, further expanding the entertainment lineup surrounding one of Formula 1’s marquee events. Tickets and hospitality packages, including afterparty add-ons for eligible race attendees, are now available through the Las Vegas Grand Prix organizers.
The announcement continues a successful run for the pop group at the venue, where its “Into the Millennium” residency has drawn strong demand since launching as Sphere’s first pop-headlined residency. Originally scheduled for a limited engagement, the production has been extended multiple times through summer 2026 after a series of sellouts, with additional performances added to meet fan demand. The immersive show celebrates the group’s blockbuster Millennium album while also featuring many of its biggest career hits.
Pairing the Backstreet Boys with Formula 1 underscores Las Vegas’ strategy of blending world-class motorsports with large-scale entertainment experiences. The afterparty is expected to give race fans an opportunity to continue the celebration immediately after Saturday night’s Grand Prix, with Sphere’s cutting-edge audiovisual technology providing a distinctive setting for the event. Organizers have positioned the concert as a signature addition to the weekend’s growing slate of attractions.
The 2026 Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix is scheduled for Nov. 21, with the Backstreet Boys taking the stage at Sphere following the race. The performance extends the group’s long-running presence in Las Vegas while further strengthening the city’s reputation for pairing major sporting events with headline entertainment designed to attract fans from around the world.
