Rumours had been swirling in recent weeks about the announcement of the tour, with intrepid fans noticing a Facebook event listing for US Bank Stadium that was soon deleted.

The North American shows come on the heels of the band wrapping up the UK and European leg of the ‘Power Up’ tour in Dublin’s Croke Park on August 17.

This tour also marks the band’s first run of shows with their new line-up, comprising singer Brian Johnson, guitarists Angus and Stevie Young, drummer Matt Laug, and new bassist Chris Chaney (Jane’s AddictionAlanis Morissette).

The ‘Power Up’ tour takes its name from AC/DC’s 2020 album of the same name, their 17th studio record. In a four-star review, NME wrote: “By the time things wrap up on ‘Code Red’, which sees the band firing on all cylinders, it becomes clear that their steadfast refusal to adapt or change is no bad thing. While far from a reinvention of the wheel, ‘Power Up’ is a joyous celebration of the unbridled heavy rock that has served them well for almost 50 years and, we can hope, a unifying cry for the future.”

While no official dates have been confirmed at time of writing, Johnson and co are also rumoured to be headliners for Glastonbury 2025, alongside Harry StylesTaylor SwiftOlivia RodrigoGreen Day and more.
