Motley Crue and Def Leppard say the 2022 “Stadium Tour” is a go, and they’ve even added new North American dates
The Motley Crue and Def Leppard stadium has been postponed not once by twice due to the pandemic, but now, the rockers are confident the tour will go forward in 2022. In fact, the camps have officially announced that the trek is a go for 2022 and even added several new dates to the roster.
The tour, which seems Motley Crue reuniting for the first time since their “retirement,” will feature five new shows in August and September, including a final tour stop on Sep. 9 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Additional new tour stops include Indianapolis and three Canadian gigs in Toronto, Vancouver and Edmonton. In total, the tour now features 36 dates, starting June 16 in Atlanta, Georgia. Tickets for the tour, which offers support from Poison and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, are on sale now, not counting the new dates, which go on sale starting Feb. 25.
Fans have already purchased one million tickets for the trek, according to a statement, and the bands are pumped to get on the road. View the updated roster of dates for “The Stadium Tour” below.
“It’s on! We don’t think we’ve ever looked forward more to kicking off a tour than this one,” Motley Crue said in a collective statement. “We can’t wait to finally see all the fans across North America again. Get ready for a wild ride this summer!”
Joe Elliott of Def Leppard added, “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!”
