Vancouver, get ready to rock! AC/DC, the world’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band, is coming back to BC Place on August 13th, 2026, as part of their massive Power Up Tour. After blowing the roof off the same venue last year, the Aussie legends are bringing their signature hard-hitting riffs and electrifying energy for a second round—this time with even more power.
The Power Up album, recorded right here in Vancouver at Warehouse Studios, got some of the best reviews the band has seen in decades. It is a proud nod to history, marking the reunion of all surviving members from the classic Back In Black lineup—think Angus Young on lead guitar, Brian Johnson singing his iconic vocals, bassist Cliff Williams, and drummer Phil Rudd. While the band has evolved, the spirit and raw energy of the original crew is as alive as ever. Fans will also see rhythm guitarist Stevie Young, drummer Matt Laug, and bassist Chris Chaney joining the stage for this leg of the tour.
If you have never experienced an AC/DC concert, picture a two-hour bombshell of classic rock anthems—“Thunderstruck,” “Highway to Hell,” “T.N.T.,” and of course, “Back in Black.” The show is known for larger-than-life visuals, explosive sound, and Angus Young’s legendary schoolboy outfit and wild guitar solos. AC/DC concerts are the kind of events that pull together fans from every generation, from long-time metalheads to first-timers ready to jump in the pit.
AC/DC is not just about Vancouver—they are hitting some of Canada’s biggest cities on this tour including Edmonton on August 9th, Montreal on September 12th, and Toronto on September 16th. Vancouver is lucky to snag the summer slot at BC Place, one of the city’s prime entertainment venues, perfect for this high-voltage rock experience.
Tickets went on sale November 7th at 10 a.m. via LiveNation, so if you are hoping to score a spot, now is the time to act fast. Doors usually open about 90 minutes before showtime, so plan to arrive early to soak in the atmosphere and maybe catch some awesome merch.
Whether you are a diehard fan or just looking for a legendary night out in Vancouver, AC/DC’s Power Up Tour will shake the city and rock your summer. Get ready to bang your head and scream along—this is rock ‘n’ roll glory in action!
