Backstreet’s back all right! (in Israel)
The best boy band of the ’90s is set to tour the Holy Land this summer, Haaretz reports. Time to dust off your scrunchies and snap bracelets.
Nick, A.J., Kevin, Brian and Howie will be performing in front of an adoring crowd of 8,000 in Ra’anana on July 29. Tickets go on sale soon and are said to cost between 269 shekels ($78) and 995 shekels ($288).
If you miss out thought, you’ve still got options. Israel’s got quite a line-up this summer: The Rolling Stones and Justin Timberlake are also set to perform.
Time to dust off your scrunchies and bust out the body glitter.
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
