Def Leppard have announced that they will perform at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip as headliners as part of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally on August 10.
The Rock & Roll Hall Of Famers will take the stage immediately after a double-daredevil stunt involving motorcycle Wall of Death daredevil Kyle Ives' bike jump over a high-wire act.
"We're thrilled to welcome Def Leppard back to The Chip's main stage," said Buffalo Chip founder Rod "Woody" Woodruff.
Def Leppard is among the lineup of rock superstars performing at the 10-day annual event, which kicks off on August 4 at The Buffalo Chip Campground in Sturgis, South Dakota.
Other headliners who are set to perform at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip include ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Limp Bizkit, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Whiskey Myers, Koe Wetzel and George Thorogood & the Destroyers.
An additional list of artists will be announced later. Campground passes are available at buffalochip.com.
