Journey and Def Leppard will be playing ball together this summer -- and in Detroit.

The two Classic Rock favorites will bring their 58-city tour to Comerica Park on July 13. Tickets go on sale 10 a.m. Feb. 9. Prices and other details will be posted at livenation.com and 313Presents.com.

Both groups last performed in the metro area during 2016, though Journey played at Caesars Windsor last year.

The tour starts May 21 in Hartford, Conn., and wraps Oct. 6 in Los Angeles. Though playing mostly arenas and amphitheaters, the groups will also be playing stadiums in Chicago, Denver, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Boston, Fargo, N.D., San Franciso, San Diego and Hersey, Pa.

The pair joins what’s shaping up to be a busy summer for stadium shows in the metro area, with the Zac Brown Band also headlining at Comerica Park and Taylor Swift and Kenny Chesney booked for shows at Ford Field.
