Def Leppard announced their 2020 North American tour of stadiums with Mötley Crüe and Poison yesterday at a press conference.

Mötley Crüe and Poison will join the band for 22 dates in 2020.

The co-headline 'The Stadium Tour' trek will start at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, FL on 7th July 2020.

The last show takes place at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, CA on 5th September 2020.

The band members attended a press conference in Hollywood, CA yesterday with live video briefly available on Mötley Crüe's Facebook page.

During the chat, which was also broadcast live on SiriusXM Channel 106, Joe was asked about the tour and any plans to record it.

He responded by saying there was a chance this tour will extended and may go into 2021.

He also revealed Def Leppard's proposed 'Sin City Residency' live DVD/CD/Blu-ray would be released in the first half of 2020. Vivian was more tight lipped when asked about a new Def Leppard studio album.

The tour was announced in a live press conference video at 1pm PT in Hollywood, CA. View photos below. The full video has yet to be posted and the first 7 minute video is no longer available.

Def Leppard - Press Conference Quotes

Joe Elliott/Sin City DVD

"Which is gonna come out first, first quarter, of next year or something."

Joe Elliott/2020 Tour/'80s

"Well yeah, but there is a lot of people that still think that the '80s is a mockable kind of decade. And we're about to prove that it's not I think because, it's last man standing to a point maybe, but we have survived you know."

"Whether we've gone away and come back. Or whether we've been constant, it's the music has been the thread that keeps brining everybody back again."

"But you just put those four names on a piece of paper and look at 'em whichever way round you look at it. It's like, it's a big statement really."

"And, you know, the '80s get mocked a lot and I think something like this is. Well yeah, but there is a lot of people that still think that the '80s is a mockable kind of decade. And we're about to prove that it's not I think because, it's last man standing to a point maybe, but we have survived you know."

Joe Elliott/2020 Tour/More Possible Dates

"There’s 22 stadium shows, so it’s pretty much most major territories. And in fairness it seems to be growing and there’s more interest before it’s even gone on sale. So it may extend one way or another, even into the next year."

Rick Savage/2020 Tour

"You know it's just an evening of hit after hit after hit. That will be portrayed in an energetic way. It's not, you're not just gonna see the bands standing there playing the music perfectly. Just like it is on, you know, on some of the records. You're actually gonna experience something. Yeah I guarantee there will be mistakes. But they'll be mistakes 'cause probably somebody will be doing a triple summersault while trying to do a guitar solo and things like that."
