The Backstreet Boys are returning to Israel
American boyband will play one concert next month in the city of Rishon LeZion - three years after their previous appearance
The American pop band Backstreet Boys will perform in Israel.
The band, whose popularity was at its peak in the 1990s, will play one concert in April in the central city of Rishon Lezion.
The concert was announced on Monday afternoon and is based on the band’s Las Vegas show in residence at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.
“Backstreet Boys: Larger Than Life,” as the show is called, includes all of the band’s greatest hits.
In May 2015, the band played three shows in Israel and toured the country. Three sold-out performances in July 2014 were cancelled due to the Gaza war.
Leading musicians including Radiohead, Nick Cave, Guns N Roses and Justin Bieber have performed in Tel Aviv in the last year, while others, such as New Zealand-born singer Lorde has bowed to pressure from advocates of the Boycotts Divestment and Sanctions movement, in snubbing performing in the Jewish state.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
