The Raiders’ Allegiant Stadium is getting another event date in September and it’s neither a Raiders nor a UNLV football game.
“The Stadium Tour” featuring a lineup of rockers Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts is making a stop at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas Sept. 9.
Presale for the concert is Feb. 24 at 10 AM PST/Vegas time.
The Stadium Tour starts in Atlanta June 16 and the performance at Allegiant Stadium Sept. 9 will be the final stop on the North American tour.
Producing the tour is Live Nation.
The Allegiant Stadium concert Sept. 9 will be sandwiched by UNLV football games at the venue on Sept. 3 (UNLV vs Idaho State) and Sept. 17 (UNLV vs North Texas). And Bad Bunny comes to Allegiant Stadium Sept. 23 and 24.
