Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe, Poison & Joan Jett Announce Rescheduled Tour Dates
The anticipated Stadium Tour will now kick-off 19 June 2021 at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium.
Earlier this month, Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe, Poison and Joan Jett issued a joint statement announcing that their highly-anticipated North American Stadium Tour would be postponed amid COVID-19. Now, just two weeks later, the four acts have shared rescheduled dates for 2021. The 30-show tour kicks off 19 June at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium and wraps up 12 September at San Diego’s Petco Park.
In a post on Instagram, Def Leppard confirmed that all tickets from the 2020 dates will be honoured, while refunds can be requested if ticket holders cannot make the new 2021 dates.
Originally scheduled to begin 18 June, the summer tour would have marked Mötley Crüe’s first shows together since they completed their ‘final’ tour in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve 2015. The road trip was also to be Poison’s first since their 2018 Nothin’ But A Good Time Tour, while Def Leppard were returning to the stage following a busy 2019 which saw them play a string of live shows, including a Las Vegas residency.
Last week, Mötley Crüe’s Tommy Lee, spoke with Southern California’s 95.5 KLOS about the postponed tour. “I am so bummed. But I’m stoked that it’s not cancelled”, said the legendary drummer. He added that he and bassist Nikki Sixx had spent “Several months designing ‘The Stadium Tour’. So all that stuff is sitting in a ginormous warehouse. And the only I can tell you is that it’s insane. You give us a ginormous place that seats between 40 and 60 thousand people with no roof on it… we had a blast designing this. It’s one of those where people are gonna walk out going, like, ‘What the hell just happened here?’”
