Mötley Crüe is set to return to the road in 2026 with a large-scale North American trek that marks two significant milestones for the band. The upcoming run, titled “The Return of the Carnival of Sins”, arrives as the group recognizes both the 20th anniversary of its 2005-2006 Carnival of Sins tour and the 45th anniversary of its formation. The tour is scheduled to travel through 33 cities across the United States and Canada next summer.
The Return of the Carnival of Sins is set to kick off on July 17 in Burgettstown at The Pavilion at Star Lake. From there, the band is slated to make stops in cities such as Buffalo, Toronto, Saratoga Springs, West Palm Beach, Tampa, Charlotte, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Phoenix, and Salt Lake City before wrapping up on September 26 in Ridgefield at Cascades Amphitheater.
Tesla and Extreme are confirmed as special guests for the full tour.
In a joint statement, the members of Mötley Crüe described the process of rebuilding the Carnival of Sins as an opportunity to reconnect with a defining moment in the band’s history.
“Bringing back the spirit of Carnival of Sins has been a blast, and we wanted to take it even further for its 20th anniversary. 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,” the group said.
Fans looking to catch Mötley Crüe live in 2026 can purchase their tickets through Ticket Club, where members never pay hidden service fees.
