LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) — Following two years of false starts and delays, thanks to the menace of COVID-19, Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts and Poison announced plans to pick up the thread of their North American stadium tour this June.
The tour kicks off on June 16th at Truist Park in Atlanta, with dates throughout the summer before the run wraps at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on September 16th.
Additionally, due to demand the tour has been expanded with 5 new stadium shows, including dates in Toronto, Edmonton, Indianapolis, Vancouver, and the tour’s closer in Las Vegas.
“On behalf of the band, we’re beyond thrilled that the stadium tour is finally happening this summer,” Def Leppard’s 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!”
Mötley Crüe said, “It’s on! We don’t think we’ve ever looked forward more to kicking off a tour than this one. We can’t wait to finally see all the fans across North America again. Get ready for a wild ride this summer!”
Up-and-coming rock band Classless Act, signed to Better Noise Music, have signed on as the opening act for the tour. With the release of their single “Give It To Me” in 2021, the band has been turning heads and received critical nods from both Spin and Loudwire.
