Def Leppard 2015 UK Tour Countdown - 30 Days To Go

Tuesday, 27th October 2015





Def Leppard 2015.
UK/Ireland Tour 2015

Def Leppard will start their 2015 tour of UK and Ireland in Dublin in 30 days on 6th December.

The 10 date tour was announced on 27th March this year when the band also (sort of) confirmed their new album would be self titled.

Since then two venues have undergone names changes. The Odyssey Arena in Belfast became The SEE Arena, Belfast in September.

The band's home town venue Motorpoint Arena has now reverted back to its original name once again and is now called Sheffield Arena. As it was when the band played there in 1992-1999 and 2008. The venue has now dropped the Motorpoint name following a change of management in August.

The band's last visit to the UK for a live appearance was on 28th September 2014 at Wembley Stadium. A three song medley was played before an NFL International Series game.

Stand in guitarist Steve Brown stood in for Vivian Campbell who was in hospital at the time.

The last UK tour took place in December 2011 with Motley Crue as co-headliners and Steel Panther in support.

At least five of the 10 shows this year have already sold out according to earMUSIC. Joe recently commented on his excitement about the tour during his weekly radio show.

The Joe Elliott Show - 19th September Quote

"It was a pleasure being able to introduce ya to the new Leppard stuff at the top of the show. There's more to come October 30th and we're really looking forward to what is almost a sold out tour of Britain and Ireland starting in Dublin on the 6th December. Finishing in Sheffield on the 20th."

The Joe Elliott Show - 25th September Quote

"I'm very much looking forward to the December tour of Great Britain and Ireland with that particular crowd. That particular crowd however aren't gonna be on stage because there's only the singer left but that's OK because it's his band. We just heard Whitesnake there from the album Saints And Sinners with Victim Of Love."

Joe Elliott - 27th March News Quote

"I am very excited to be working with Whitesnake again; we had such a wonderful time when we did it back in 2008. It's a great experience for rock fans to be able to see two great live bands on the same stage on the same night."
