Def Leppard have released the new video Behind The Tour 2026, Episode 1: Las Vegas.

The six-minute clip showcases the band rehearsing for their highly anticipated Las Vegas residency.

In a message accompanying the video, it's revealed that lead singer Joe Elliott takes a road trip through the desert while the rest of the band rehearses for the show and checks out their new stage set for the first time.

This new behind-the-scenes content follows Def Leppard's recent release of their single "Rejoice", which was unveiled ahead of their triumphant return to Las Vegas for their Def Leppard: Live At Caesars Palace The Las Vegas Residency that kicked off February 3.

Def Leppard will be joined on their Las Vegas residency by guitarist Phil Collen, who shares his thoughts on the song "Rejoice".

"This song's been an amazing journey from concept to conclusion," Collen explains.

"Joe had this idea for a lyric where the narrator is at absolute rock bottom and wants to rise up to a higher level.

Do you have a musical piece that might match with that?' And he said, 'As it happens, yes I do.'" Guitarist Phil Collen reveals that he had a riff for the song in his archives and sent it to Joe Elliott.

"I had this riff, this idea for a song a while ago actually, so when Joe came to me I created this drum loop based with a tribal sound and it fit perfectly with this other arrangement I had," Collen shares.

"We love it.

It's hard rock for us.

It's got a bit more of an 'oomph' than stuff we've been doing for a while." The band's latest content is available via BraveWords Records on YouTube, so fans can stay up-to-date with their behind-the-scenes videos and live performances.
