Motley Crue will hit the road next year with Tesla and Extreme, celebrating their 45th anniversary and the 20th anniversary of their massive Carnival of Sins tour.
The Return of the Carnival of Sins trek begins on July 17 in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, and concludes on Sept. 26 in Ridgefield, Washington.
Tickets go on sale to the general public on. You can see the full list of dates below.
“Bringing back the spirit of Carnival of Sins has been a blast, and we wanted to take it even further for its 20th anniversary,” Motley Crue said in a statement. “This new show is for the Crueheads who’ve been with us through it all and for the new Crueheads who didn’t get to experience Carnival of Sins last time around. Get ready — we’re coming your way and we can’t wait to see you next summer.”
Motley Crue spent the past several days teasing the Return of the Carnival of Sins on social media, posting images of sword swallowers, two-headed snakes and even a “goat-headed boy.” The announcement comes roughly six weeks after the conclusion of the band’s 2025 Las Vegas residency, which was postponed after Vince Neil had multiple strokes just after Christmas.
