Def Leppard will tour North America in 2027 with the Goo Goo Dolls and The Struts as support, the bands announced. The 45-date run kicks off March 2 in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and continues through July 2, with stops in major U.S. and Canadian markets including Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles and Vancouver.

Tickets go on sale October 16, with fan club, Citi and Verizon presales beginning the week of October 12. The tour will donate $1 per ticket sold to City of Hope, a cancer research and treatment organization, according to the announcement.

The tour follows a run of sold-out Def Leppard shows in 2026 across Las Vegas, the UK, Europe, South America and Mexico, including the band’s third residency at Caesars Palace, the announcement says. Def Leppard’s Greatest Hits compilation reportedly entered four U.K. charts this summer, with two debuting in the top 10. The Goo Goo Dolls, whose single “Iris” has been certified Diamond, recently performed at the iHeartRadio Festival and Sea.Hear.Now Festival.
