Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe will embark on their long-delayed North American tour this summer, originally scheduled for 2020. Dubbed the Stadium Tour, the trek kicks-off in Atlanta on June 16 before wrapping-up in Las Vegas on Sept. 9 and will include previously announced stops, alongside five new dates. Joan Jett & the Blackhearts and Poison will open all shows. Tickets for the new dates go on sale to the general public Friday, Feb. 25 at 10 a.m. local time via LIVENATION.COM.

Def Leppard’s Joe Elliott said in a statement:  “On behalf of the band, we’re beyond thrilled that the stadium tour is finally happening this summer. 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 added, “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!”
