Def Leppard & Mötley Crüe at Bramall Lane

Def Leppard are set to play a huge homecoming gig in Sheffield as part of a co-headline World Tour alongside fellow iconic rock legends, Mötley Crüe.

The first stop on the European leg of their World Tour will see the bands bringing their electrifying stadium show to Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane ground on Monday 22 May 2023. 

The Sheffield show will be especially sweet for Joe Elliot, who is a devoted Sheffield United fan, while Rick Savage supports Sheffield Wednesday, even though he played for United's youth academy for a short while.

Formed in Sheffield in 1976, Def Leppard rose to prominence in the 80s as part of the British heavy metal movement. They have sold more than 110 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the US Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.

It's a profile only "The World’s Most Notorious Rock Band", Mötley Crüe could match. Known for their iconic live performances, with highlights such as Tommy Lee's, Crüecifly-Drum-Rollercoaster and Nikki Sixx's Flame-Throwing-Bass. 

“After finally getting back on the road and having a monumental summer tour in the US & Canada this year, we’re beyond thrilled to be bringing this massive stadium tour to major cities all over the world, and kicking off Europe in Sheffield where it all started for us 45 years ago. We’re looking to forward to seeing you out there, somewhere soon!” said Joe Elliott of Def Leppard.

Tickets are on sale now.
