Def Leppard at Capital One Arena

Def Leppard brings decades of arena-ready rock to Washington on March 21, 2027, with Goo Goo Dolls and The Struts on the bill. Formed in Sheffield, England, in 1977, the band became one of the world's best-selling rock acts, with more than 100 million records sold. Their breakthrough albums Pyromania and Hysteria helped define their sound: polished production, huge choruses, and enduring anthems such as “Photograph,” “Rock of Ages,” and “Pour Some Sugar on Me.”

The band's history also reflects remarkable resilience. Drummer Rick Allen continued performing after losing an arm in a 1984 car accident, and Def Leppard's long-running connection with fans earned them induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019. Their recent catalog includes Drastic Symphonies, a 2023 collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra that reimagines familiar songs with orchestral arrangements.

At Capital One Arena, the lineup pairs Def Leppard's classic hard-rock repertoire with the melodic pop-rock catalog of the Goo Goo Dolls and the glam-leaning energy of The Struts. The arena setting in downtown Washington offers a fitting backdrop for a multi-generation concert night. Expect the familiar singalong appeal of songs like “Hysteria” and “Pour Some Sugar on Me”; the specific setlist and show production may vary. Prices currently start around $120, with availability and seat locations affecting the final cost.
