Rock band Queen and singer Adam Lambert are once again teaming up for another summer tour, launching on June 23 at Phoenix's Gila River Arena.

The run is scheduled to hit arenas across 24 cities, including North America and extend through August 5, hitting cities like Toronto, Boston, New York, Washington DC, and Dallas, reported Entertainment Weekly.

Queen's present members Brian May (guitarist) and Roger Taylor (drummer) began touring with Lambert in 2014 and have played sold-out shows in Europe, Asia and Australia.

Fans could expect to hear classic Queen tracks like "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Another One Bites the Dust."
 

Lambert, 34, first teamed up with May, 69, and Taylor, 67, in 2009 to perform "We Are the Champions" during the American Idol finale.

Lambert joined May and Taylor again in 2011 for the EMAs' tribute to late Queen frontman Freddie Mercury.
