Backstreet Boys and Vegas Golden Knights: A Golden Collaboration at The Fortress
Nick Carter, AJ McLean, and Howie Dorough recently had a memorable experience at The Fortress at T-Mobile Arena as part of an exciting collaboration between the Backstreet Boys and the Vegas Golden Knights. The collaboration includes an exclusive retail collection designed by The Wild Collective, siren ringing, and Zamboni rides, showcasing the essence of Las Vegas.
The launch of the retail collection coincides with the Backstreet Boys' return to Las Vegas for their "Into The Millennium" residency at Sphere, highlighting the city's vibrant sports, music, and entertainment scene. The partnership between the band and the hockey team symbolizes the strong connection between hockey and music in Las Vegas.
The Golden Knights unveiled the retail collection on Dec. 26, blending the Vegas flair with the iconic Backstreet Boys style. During the game against the Minnesota Wild, Nick, AJ, and Howie visited The Fortress at T-Mobile Arena for a special golden knight experience, starting the night by energizing the crowd with the siren.
After ringing the siren, the trio met with William Karlsson and Shea Theodore, engaging in conversations about life in Vegas, Sweden, and music. AJ's lifelong dream of riding a Zamboni came true as they each had a tour of the Zambonis, including testing out the Zamboni horn skills from the driver's seat.
Following their Zamboni ride, the musicians were welcomed by players' wives and girlfriends, as well as VGK cast members like Chance, Vegas Vivas, and Golden Belles. The collaboration between the Backstreet Boys and the Vegas Golden Knights celebrates the spirit of Las Vegas and the unique blend of sports and music in the city.
