Hold onto your leather jackets—AC/DC is roaring into Brisbane for the first time in a decade, and Suncorp Stadium is about to feel the full force of the POWER UP Tour.

After selling over 2 million tickets across Europe and obliterating North America with 10 sold-out shows, the world’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band is finally bringing their thunder home. With Angus Young on lead guitar, Brian Johnson on vocals, Stevie Young on rhythm guitar, Matt Laug on drums, and Chris Chaney on bass, this is the show Aussie fans have been waiting years for.

They’re hitting stadiums nationwide through November and December, with Brisbane's turn landing Sunday 14 December at Suncorp Stadium—joined by Aussie punk legends Amyl and the Sniffers, plus Brisbane’s own Headsend.

Final tickets are still available, so if your inner mosher has been asleep, now's the time to wake them. If you’re heading to the stadium, here’s everything you need to know: gate times, how to get there, where to eat, and how to survive the inevitable event-day chaos.

When & Where It’s All Happening

AC/DC hits Suncorp Stadium on Sunday 14 December 2025 (yep, next weekend), bringing their world-conquering POWER UP Tour to Brisbane for one massive night.

Expect huge stadium production—towering LED walls, pyro, and enough decibels to rattle Milton to its core.

Approximate run times:

  • 4pm: Box office opens
  • 5pm: Gates open
  • 6:10pm: Headsend

Arrive early to clear security, grab a drink and find your spot—because once the lights drop, you'll be pushing through a hectic crowd.
