LAS VEGAS (NOVEMBER 12, 2025) – Today, Multi-platinum pop icons New Kids On The Block announce 16 new dates through 2026 for their debut Las Vegas residency, “THE RIGHT STUFF,” at Dolby Live at Park MGM. The New Kids will play a total of 24 shows next year exclusively in Vegas, for what has become a special destination for their beloved Blockheads and visitors alike. Visit www.NKOTB.com for more information.
In true New Kids meets Vegas style, the band took to the Vegas Strip to announce the Residency extension, recommitting to Las Vegas in a ceremony at the Little White Wedding Chapel. The band first received the keys to the Las Vegas Strip from Clark County Commission Chairman Tick Segerblom, and then celebrated the honor with a wedding ceremony to officially get married to the city for the long term.
“What we’ve built here in Vegas, together with our incredible Blockheads, feels truly magical. The energy in that room each night— the lights, the lasers, flying up to the balcony to see all our blockheads dancing and singing along— is so far beyond anything we’ve ever done before. Vegas has been so welcoming to us, we couldn’t leave just yet! We are having the absolute best time and are so excited and honored to be asked to extend our stay here at the Dolby through 2026,” said Donnie Wahlberg.
“THE RIGHT STUFF” Las Vegas Residency is the New Kids On The Block’s biggest celebration yet, designed to immerse attendees in a heart pounding night of hits, spectacle, celebration and showmanship. NKOTB will take over Dolby Live at Park MGM, allowing the band to bring in massive performance elements that can’t be brought on the road.
