Def Leppard Sets Las Vegas Return with New 2026 Residency

About Def Leppard

Def Leppard have sold more than 110 million albums worldwide and two prestigious Diamond Awards in the U.S. Their career includes numerous hit singles and multi-platinum albums, including two of the best-selling albums of all time, Pyromania (11x Platinum) and Hysteria (14x Platinum), capturing the group’s legendary tracks such as “Rock of Ages,” “Pour Some Sugar on Me” and “Foolin’.” 

In May 2022, Def Leppard released their critically and commercially acclaimed twelfth studio album Diamond Star Halos. The album debuted at #1 on the Apple and Amazon Music charts, scored a Top 10 debut on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart, marking the band’s eighth Top 10 album of their career, and garnered a #1 debut on Billboard’s Hard Rock chart. Globally, Diamond Star Halos notched numerous Top 10 chart entries including a Top 5 debut in the UK.

Following this success, the band released their 13th studio album Drastic Symphonies with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in 2023. The album charted at #4 in the UK album charts – their highest UK chart entry in over 32 years—and spent an impressive 15 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Current Classical chart. In early 2023, the band scored a U.K. #1 Netflix film with their cameo in the acclaimed movie Bank Of Dave, and returned for the film’s highly anticipated sequel, Bank of Dave 2, released in January of this year.

Following the close of their historic 2018 co-headline stadium and arena run in North America, Def Leppard sold more than 1,000,000 tickets, a massive feat in today’s touring world. Def Leppard & Mötley Crüe topped that number yet again with another sold out stadium run in 2022 & 2023 selling over 2.1 million tickets across the globe while performing in 27 countries and on five continents.
