21.06.2026 - 00:47:11 | ad-hoc-news.de
Mötley Crüe remain one of the most enduring hard rock exports from Los Angeles and continue to work as a global touring act. The band are currently taking their Dogs of War World Tour 2024 through arenas and festivals in Europe and Latin America, according to listings on their official site and major ticketing platforms.
Dogs of War tour across Europe
The current Dogs of War World Tour 2024 run began in spring with European arena and festival stops, including dates in Germany, Sweden and the United Kingdom, as shown on the band’s official tour page. These shows present the first extended European run with guitarist John 5 in the lineup.
Venues on this leg include major arenas such as the O2 Arena in London and Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg, alongside festival slots at events like Sweden Rock Festival, according to tour and festival listings. For many fans, it is the first chance to hear the new single Dogs of War live alongside 1980s staples.
Latin American dates and U.S. outlook
After Europe, Mötley Crüe are scheduled to headline shows in Latin America, with concerts in Brazil, Chile and Mexico listed on regional ticketing platforms. These appearances underline that the group still draws arena-scale crowds outside the United States decades after their commercial peak.
At the time of writing, no new 2024 or 2025 U.S. dates are listed on the band’s official tour page, following their extensive North American run with Def Leppard on the 2022-2023 Stadium Tour. For U.S. fans, the current international routing suggests that the next domestic shows will likely follow only after the present cycle abroad.
