Mötley Crüe is hitting the road again in 2026 with “The Return Of The Carnival Of Sins,” a North American tour celebrating two huge milestones: the 20th anniversary of their legendary 2005–2006 “Carnival Of Sins” tour and 45 years of the band’s iconic career.
The tour, produced by Live Nation, will take the band through 33 cities across the U.S. and Canada, bringing back the high-octane spectacle that has made their live shows unforgettable. Joining Mötley Crüe on select dates are special guests Tesla and Extreme, promising fans a powerhouse night of rock.
When the original “Carnival Of Sins” tour launched, it redefined arena rock shows with theatrical chaos, over-the-top visuals, and relentless energy. Two decades later, Mötley Crüe will revive the spirit of that tour with updated production and a refreshed setlist, offering both longtime fans and new Mötley Crüe an unforgettable experience.
The band shared: “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.”
