More than a decade after announcing their Final tour, Mötley Crüe are hitting the road again next year for a massive 2026 North American run of shows. The Vince Neil-led heavy metal legends announced the dates for the 33-city outing they’re calling the Return of the Carnival of Sins in honor of the 20th anniversary of the 2005-2006 tour that birthed their 2006 Carnival of Sins: Live two-CD set.

The shows slated to kick off on July 17 in Burgettstown, Pa. at the Pavilion at Star Lake will also commemorate the band’s 45th anniversary. The Live Nation-produced tour will feature opening acts Extreme and Tesla on a summer-long outing that will stop in New York, Michigan, Ontario, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, California, Utah and Washington State.
“Bringing back the spirit of Carnival of Sins has been a blast, and we wanted to take it even further for its 20th anniversary,” the band said in a statement. “This new show is for the Crüeheads who’ve been with us through it all and for the new Crüeheads 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.”
A general on-sale will kick off on Friday (Nov. 21) at 9 a.m. local time, with VIP packages available starting on Wednesday (Nov. 19) at 9 a.m. local time; more ticketing information can be found here. In addition, the band said that $1 from every ticket will be donated to ASAP! (After School Arts Program) through the Mötley Crüe Giveback Initiative to fund hands-on arts programs for young people.
Coinciding with the tour announce, the deluxe box set version of the 40th anniversary of their Theatre of Pain album is out now, featuring reimagined artwork, the newly remastered album on color vinyl and bonus material including a 1985 Long Beach live concert, rare demos and a 76-page hardcover book with never-before-seen photos and memories from that era.
The veteran band featuring original members bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee as well as more recent member guitarist John 5 wrapped up their Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM last month after pushing the start date back six months due to a debilitating stroke suffered by singer Neil last Christmas. “I had to learn to walk again, and that was tough,” Neil told the Las Vegas Review-Journal in September. “The doctors said they didn’t think I’d be able to go back on stage again. I go, ‘No, no, I’m gonna do it. Watch and see.’”
Luckily for the band, Neil did not lose his voice after the stroke, but things were so bad for the 64-year-old rocker that he said he had to be carried to the bathroom, before graduating to a wheelchair, a walker and then a cane. Following months of physical therapy at his Nashville home he said he’s able to walk unassisted again.
