Def Leppard, who play their only UK show this year this Sunday, have announced a run of European dates for next year. The tour will kick off at Dalhalla in Rättvik, Sweden, on June 26, and climax with a show at Germany's Wacken Open Air Festival on July 30.
In between, they'll play six UK shows, with dates scheduled in Belfast, Glasgow, Sheffield, London, Birmingham and Manchester. The general sale for all tickets begins at 10am local time this Friday.
Extreme will be supporting at all shows apart from the opening night in Rättvik, which is billed as "An evening with Def Leppard" and at Wacken.
“We’re looking forward to playing Radio 2 in the Park in Chelmsford this week, our only UK date of 2025," says frontman Joe Elliott. "But we’re also very buzzed to announce our UK and Euro dates in 2026!
"Playing to our home crowd and our fans in Europe is very important to us, and we’ll be bringing a brand new show that will feature some surprises as well as the classics! See you soon!"
"It’s a dream to be coming back to the UK and Europe in June and July next year," adds guitarist Phil Collen. "And to be coming back with our good friends, Extreme, is a bonus. It’s going to be an incredible night for all the fans!"
