Originally scheduled for 2020 (and postponed for obvious reasons), Def Leppard and Mötley Crue have announced rescheduled 2022 dates for their co-headlining trek this summer — the aptly-titled Stadium Tour.
They'll be joined by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts and Poison on the North American run, which will bring them to Toronto, Vancouver and Edmonton this August and September. (Unsurprisingly, Def Leppard were not keen on returning to Hamilton's FirstOntario Centre.) Things kick off on June 16 in Atlanta before wrapping up in Las Vegas on September 9.
"On behalf of the band, we're beyond thrilled that the stadium tour is finally happening this summer," Def bandleader Joe Elliott said in a statement. "It's been a while coming and we can't wait to get back on stage again and we can't wait to see you in one of the many stadiums soon!"
"It's on! We don't think we've ever looked forward more to kicking off a tour than this one," Mötley Crüe added. "We can't wait to finally see all the fans across North America again. Get ready for a wild ride this summer!" Nikki Sixx has personally guaranteed that it will be less boring than a Pearl Jam show.
Tickets go on sale to the general public via Live Nation next Friday (February 25) at 10 a.m. local time.
