Iconic rock band Mötley Crüe will embark on The Return of the Carnival of Sins tour in 2026, commemorating the 20th anniversary of their original Carnival of Sins tour and the band’s 45th anniversary.
The tour will feature elaborate staging and chaos reminiscent of the original tour, with stops in 33 cities across North America. They will have stops in the Minneapolis area August 21st – at the Shakopee Amphitheater – and in Chicagoland on August 22nd in Tinley Park.
Special guests Tesla and Extreme will join them on all dates.
And this tour supports a good cause: One dollar from every ticket will be donated to ASAP! (After School Arts Program) through the Mötley Crüe Giveback Initiative, to support students with hands-on programs in music and the arts.
Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday at 10 a.m. local time.
In conjunction with the tour, Mötley Crüe is releasing a Theatre Of Pain 40th Anniversary Deluxe box set featuring reimagined artwork. The newly remastered album on color vinyl will include a never-before-released 1985 Long Beach live concert (2LP), rare demo recordings (1LP), and a 76-page hardcover book packed with never-before-seen photos and memories from the Theatre Of Pain era.
