Set to kick off on June 13 in Rattvik, SE, the series will run until the UK band’s July 30 appearance at the Wacken Open Air festival on July 30.
"We're looking forward to playing Radio 2 in the Park in Chelmsford this week, our only U.K. date of 2025," says Joe Elliott. "But we're also very buzzed to announce our U.K. and Euro dates in 2026!
"Playing to our home crowd and our fans in Europe is very important to us, and we'll be bringing a brand new show that will feature some surprises as well as the classics! See you soon!"
"It's a dream to be coming back to the U.K. and Europe in June and July next year,” adds Phill Collen. “And to be coming back with our good friends Extreme is a bonus. It's going to be an incredible night for all the fans!"
Tickets for the UK and European tour are now on sale at the usual outlets.
