AC/DC Announces 2024 World Tour & New Bassist

AC/DC will hit the road in May for the first time since 2016. The initial leg of the legendary Australian rock band’s Power Up Tour consists of 21 dates in cities across Europe running through August.

The announcement comes after a week of teases and months of speculation. New touring bassist Chris Chaney (Jane’s Addiction, Alanis Morissette) and touring drummer Matt Laug will join vocalist Brian Johnson and guitarists Angus Young and Stevie Young as the band’s lineup for the tour. Drummer Phil Rudd and bassist Cliff Williams each contributed to AC/DC’s 2020 album, Power Up, but will not appear in the tour of the same name. Laug initially stepped in for Rudd at AC/DC's Power Trip set last October.

AC/DC kicks off the Power Up Tour with two nights at Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen, Germany on May 17 and 21. Other stops include Reggio Emilia (Italy), Seville (Spain), Amsterdam, Munich, Dresden (Germany), Vienna (Austria), Zurich (Switzerland), London, Hockenheim (Germany), Stuttgart (Germany), Bratislava (Slovakia); Nuremberg (Germany), Hannover (Germany), Dessel (Belgium) and Paris. The trek concludes on August 17 at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, February 16 at 10 a.m. local time for most shows. Tickets for the shows in Germany go on sale at 11 a.m. local time on Friday, while Croke Park tickets can be obtained at 9 a.m. local time on Friday.
