Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Poison & Joan Jett join forces for The Stadium Tour
Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett & The Blackhearts are heading out on an epic US stadium tour in summer 2020.
Last updated 9th Aug 2021
Aptly entitled The Stadium Tour, the huge trek will take in a total of 22 shows opening at Hard Rock Stadium on Tuesday 7th July and wrapping up at Los Angeles SoFi Stadium two months later on Saturday 5th September.
Tickets go on sale at 10am local time on Friday 13th December.
Back on 18th November, Rolling Stone magazine first reported that Mötley Crüe were reuniting and they were teaming up with Def Leppard and Poison for a stadium tour.
Later that evening, Mötley Crüe released a statement and video confirming they had destroyed their Cessation of Touring Agreement and they will be hitting the road once again. There was no confirmation at the time of their tour with Poison and Def Leppard.
Explaining why they have reunited, the band wrote: “Following the huge success of their Netflix biopic The Dirt, Mötley Crüe has seen a massive surge in new audience.
“And the band best known for breaking the rules has destroyed their cessation of touring contract in true Mötley Crüe-fashion, by literally blowing it up.”
Mötley Crüe previously ‘called it a day’ on 31st December 2015 with a farewell show at The Staples Centre in their native Los Angeles.
Def Leppard have toured extensively in America over the past year playing a Las Vegas residency and their own headline arena tour. They also headlined Download Festival 2019 with a triumphant set.
Poison last toured North American in summer 2018 and it's been 26 long years since they last played a headline tour in the UK.
