AC/DC are taking their “Power Up” tour into a massive new chapter, with fresh 2025 shows in their native Australia and a full 2026 run across South and North America that keeps the band in stadiums well into next year. The newly announced leg adds 21 dates from São Paulo to Philadelphia and marks the second North American swing of the Power Up era.


Tour Overview

The Power Up tour, named for AC/DC’s 2020 album of the same title, first kicked off in Gelsenkirchen, Germany in May 2024 and has already rolled through Europe and a spring 2025 stadium run in the U.S. and Canada.

This new run keeps the focus on that same high-voltage show, with a lineup of Angus Young on lead guitar, Brian Johnson on vocals, Stevie Young on rhythm guitar, Matt Laug on drums, and Chris Chaney on bass.

Before the newly announced 2026 dates, AC/DC will finish out 2025 with a nine-show homecoming run across Australia in November and December.

Tickets for the 2026 shows go on sale to the general public on Friday, November 7, 2025, generally at 10 a.m. local time, with a few markets starting at noon.
