After nearly a decade, AC/DC is set to electrify North America once again with a powerhouse stadium tour slated for spring 2025. This marks the legendary rockers' first extensive journey across the continent since their Rock or Bust era, reigniting the flames of their Power Up legacy.
The 13-city run kicks off on April 10 at Minneapolis' US Bank Stadium and culminates on May 28 in Cleveland. Tickets for this thunderous affair go on sale to the general public this Friday.
The Australian icons last roared through North America in late 2023 during their headlining slot at the Power Trip festival in Indio, California. That performance marked a triumphant comeback following an eight-year hiatus from the region and the challenges of their 2015-16 Rock or Bust world tour.
For those shows, Brian Johnson had to step aside due to hearing issues, and Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose famously stepped in to close out the tour. But AC/DC's heartbeat never faltered. Johnson rejoined the fold in 2020, along with bassist Cliff Williams and drummer Phil Rudd, for the release of their chart-topping album Power Up.
The band brought their relentless energy to European audiences in 2024, launching the Power Up tour with 24 unforgettable performances. Now, it's North America's turn to feel the force of their rock 'n' roll resurgence.
AC/DC's 2025 roster features a mix of enduring legends and seasoned rock veterans. Founding guitarist Angus Young and vocalist Brian Johnson lead the charge, alongside rhythm guitarist Stevie Young, who stepped in for the late Malcolm Young in 2014.
The rhythm section boasts some fresh faces: drummer Matt Laug and bassist Chris Chaney, known for his work with Jane's Addiction, add a new dimension to the band's iconic sound. Together, they form a lineup primed to deliver the high-voltage performances that fans crave.
With the iconic riffs of Angus Young, the unmistakable growl of Brian Johnson, and a new rhythm section driving the engine, AC/DC's 2025 North American stadium tour promises to be a masterclass in rock 'n' roll supremacy. Fans will once again be thunderstruck as the band powers up for what could be one of their most anticipated tours in years.
Get ready—this is AC/DC as only they can be: loud, unstoppable, and unforgettable.
