Five dates have been added to MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s long-delayed North American tour this summer with DEF LEPPARD, POISON and JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS. The trek, dubbed “The Stadium Tour”, will now include stops in Toronto, Ontario, Canada; Indianapolis, Indiana; Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada; Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; and Las Vegas, Nevada.
Tickets for the new dates go on sale to the general public on Friday, February 25 at 10 a.m. local time via Live Nation.
“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 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!”
POISON‘s Bret Michaels said: “There are not enough words to thank the three generations of fans for making this such an exciting, record-breaking, historical tour with the fastest sellouts in history at these stadiums.”
JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS stated: “We are so excited to be back out on the road! We missed doing what we love most and can’t wait to see the fans out there again!”
“The Stadium Tour”, which was originally planned for 2020 and later moved to 2021, will now kick off on June 16 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Emerging rock band CLASSLESS ACT, signed to Better Noise Music, is set to open the tour. MÖTLEY CRÜE‘s Tommy Lee was an early follower of the band and is excited to have them join him and his bandmates on the road, saying: “I remember when we went out with Ozzy Osbourne in 1984 and how it was an insane game changer!! We literally blew up after having that opportunity to play live in front of 20,000 people every f**king night! Since then, we’ve always felt it was important to help new bands; whether it was GUNS N’ ROSES, SKID ROW or so many others. This summer we’re gonna help out CLASSLESS ACT.”
