The band announced their first-ever performance in Egypt will take place in May, followed by gigs in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain.

It is part of the band's DNA World Tour, which will take place in May leading to excitement among fans in the Arab world.

"The Backstreet Boys' decision to perform in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the UAE is a positive sign of cultural exchange and openness," commented one person on Twitter.

"Backstreet Boys to perform in Egypt for the first time. My dream has come true.. only it's 25 years late And I'm not there," lamented one another.
