AC_DC Power Up 2026

AC/DC will be continuing their “Power Up” tour into 2026. The iconic Australian rock outfit has announced a new round of tour dates, featuring 21 stops in North and South America from the spring to fall.

The group will begin with dates in Brazil, Chile, and Argentina before heading to North America starting on April 7th in Mexico City. The U.S. and Canadian leg begins on July 11th in Charlotte, North Carolina, and will wind its way across the countries until September 29th, when it finishes in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Similar to previous dates in the “Power Up” tour, each venue is a stadium or arena.

AC/DC’s current touring lineup features co-founder Angus Young, vocalist Brian Johnson, guitarist Stevie Young, drummer Matt Laug, and bassist Chris Chaney, who joined the fold last year. Chaney is a verifiable rock legend in his own right, with a resume that includes collaborations with Jane’s Addiction, Alanis Morissette, Joe Satriani, Ozzy Osbourne, Andrew W.K., and more. He fills in for longtime AC/DC member Cliff Williams, who played final concert with the band at the Power Trip Festival in October 2023.
