Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe have announced they will embark on a global tour next year. The news comes after the success of their recent American concerts, which proved to be this year’s biggest North American stadium tour, which sold more than 1.3 million tickets.
The celebrated rock bands will be joined on their co-headlining ‘The World Tour’ by special guest Alice Cooper. The musicians will begin the upcoming tour in European and Latin America, before they return to the U.S.
Produced by Live Nation, the U.S. leg of Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe’s world tour will begin on August 5, 2023 in Syracuse, New York. The groups will then bring their stage show across America throughout the rest of August. The American leg of the tour will include the first ever show at the H.A. Chapman Stadium in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
“After finally getting back on the road this past summer, we’re beyond thrilled to bring this massive tour to a global audience including some special dates in America!” said Joe Elliott of Def Leppard.
“We had an incredible time playing The Stadium Tour in North America this summer and we truly can’t wait to take the show around the globe with The World Tour in 2023. Crüeheads get ready because we have a few amazing U.S. dates set for you!” Mötley Crüe said in a joint statement.
