Part of the America First Credit Union Concert SeriesMotley Crue’s 2026 Tour Is ‘for the Crueheads’ Old and New
“Bringing back the spirit of Carnival of Sins has been a blast, and we wanted to take it even further for its 20th anniversary,” Motley Crue said in a statement. “This new show is for the Crueheads who’ve been with us through it all and for the new Crueheads 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.”
Motley Crue spent the past several days teasing the Return of the Carnival of Sins on social media, posting images of sword swallowers, two-headed snakes and even a “goat-headed boy.” The announcement comes roughly six weeks after the conclusion of the band’s 2025 Las Vegas residency, which was postponed after Vince Neil had multiple strokes just after Christmas.
Neil said he felt “95 percent good” during the residency, though he was still adjusting to his return to performing. “There’s things that I can’t do on stage still. It’s hard to run back and forth on that stage,” he told Eddie Trunk in September. “That stage is so huge. But I’m getting used to it.”
