Backstreet Boys announce support act for Dublin show

Dave Hanratty

Backstreet Boys 3Arena Dublin

Backstreet’s back… in two months.

Not quite as catchy as the actual lyric, admittedly.

But yeah, Backstreet Boys are due over in the capital this summer, in case you somehow missed that news a few months ago.

The enduring boy band’s 3Arena date on Tuesday 11 June as part of their DNA world tour didn’t take too long to sell out, and with bangers like ‘Everybody’ and ‘I Want It That Way’, you can expect a lively, nostalgia-tinged night out.

If we’re being honest, the opening track off their current album is an absolute belter, too:

Anyway, if you are indeed heading along and planning on making an evening of it, you may wish to know who the Boys have selected as their opening act.

That honour falls to harmonic remix enthusiasts and Liverpool lads Mic Lowry, who are presumably big fans of Bad Boys.

As for Backstreet Boys, well, they’re likely fans of them, too.

Find out for sure in June, if you’re heading along…
