Feb. 17 (UPI) -- Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe are going on tour in 2022.

The rock bands announced the rescheduled dates for their stadium tour with Poison and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts on Thursday.

The tour was originally to begin in June 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The rescheduled 2021 dates were also delayed due to the health crisis.

Def Leppard and Mötley Crüe have added five new dates to the tour, which now begins June 16 in Atlanta. The venture will come to a close Sept. 9 in Las Vegas.

"On behalf of the band, we're beyond thrilled that the stadium tour is finally happening this summer," Def Leppard's Joe Elliott said in a statement. "It's been a while coming and we can't wait to get back on stage again and we can't wait to see you in one of the many stadiums soon!"
