Rock history is about to be made in Costa Rica. For the first time ever, the legendary British rock band Def Leppard will bring their high-energy, stadium-shaking show to the country.

The highly anticipated event was officially confirmed by regional production giant Move Concerts. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers will take the stage later this year on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, at the Anfiteatro Imperial in Parque Viva, located in Alajuela.

Adding fuel to the fire, the band announced that the iconic American rock outfit Extreme—best known for their smash hits like “More Than Words” and “Get the Funk Out”—will join them as special guests for the entire Latin American leg of the tour.

Everything We Know About the Show

The concert is scheduled to kick off at 6:30 PM, promising an evening fueled by rock nostalgia and timeless anthems like “Pour Some Sugar on Me,” “Photograph,” and “Hysteria.”

While Move Concerts and ticket provider Eticket.cr will release exact price tiers in the coming days, we already have the most critical piece of the puzzle: the ticket sale timeline.

Part of a Massive 2026 World Tour

This historic Costa Rican stop is part of Def Leppard’s expanded Live 2026 world tour. The massive trek kicked off earlier this year with a highly successful Las Vegas residency and stadium dates in India, and is currently heading into a major summer stadium and arena run across the UK and Europe.

The newly announced October and November leg marks the band’s first sweep through Mexico, Central America, and South America since their record-breaking 2023 co-headlining tour with Mötley Crüe—a global run that sold more than 2.1 million tickets across 27 countries.

For Costa Rican fans who missed out on seeing them abroad during the 2023 tour, October 27 will finally be the night to cross this legendary live act off the bucket list.
