Did You Hear? Def Leppard Just Revealed Their First 2026 Tour Dates!

Rock legends Def Leppard are returning to Las Vegas for a brand-new residency in 2026. The band just announced 12 shows at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace—marking their third time rocking the Strip after packed runs in 2013 and 2019.

“Vegas has always been a big deal for us,” said frontman Joe Elliott. “We can’t wait to hit that stage again.”

The residency, titled Def Leppard, Live at Caesars Palace, kicks off with shows starting at 8 p.m. local time. You can find all the dates and ticket info at ticketmaster.com/defleppard.

Throwback to Past Vegas Shows

Def Leppard’s first Vegas residency in 2013 featured a full live performance of their classic Hysteria album, and fans got an extra treat with a set of deep cuts performed under their alter-ego “Ded Flatbird.” Guitarist Vivian Campbell called that part “a blast.”

In 2019, the band delivered a 23-song career-spanning set, with hits from albums like Pyromania, High ‘n’ Dry, Adrenalize, and their 2015 self-titled release—plus, of course, plenty from Hysteria.
