AC/DC Electrifies North America: Full Details on the Monumental PWR UP Tour 2025!

For Those About to Rock (Again!): AC/DC Unleashes Full Details for the 2025 North American PWR UP Tour!

Hold onto your hats and prepare for the thunder! The seemingly unstoppable force of rock and roll, AC/DC, has officially confirmed what fans across North America have been desperately waiting for: the PWR UP Tour is hitting the continent in the Spring of 2025. Following the triumphant global reception of their seventeenth studio album, Power Up, these titans of rock are set to embark on a major tour, bringing their signature brand of high-voltage energy and timeless anthems back to the masses.

For a band whose career has spanned nearly five decades, influencing countless artists and selling hundreds of millions of albums worldwide, any tour announcement is a major event. But the PWR UP Tour holds special significance. It not only celebrates their latest powerful musical statement but also marks a resilient and defiant return to the stage after navigating periods of uncertainty and change. It’s a testament to the enduring brotherhood and raw power that defines AC/DC.

The Journey to PWR UP: Resilience and Reignition

The road leading to the Power Up album and this subsequent tour was paved with challenges. Following the “Rock or Bust” tour, the band faced significant hurdles, including hearing issues sidelining vocalist Brian Johnson and the profound loss of founding rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young. Yet, in true AC/DC fashion, they endured. Brian Johnson made a remarkable return, aided by new hearing technology, and the core lineup, including Angus Young, Cliff Williams, and Phil Rudd, reunited alongside Stevie Young (who stepped in for his uncle Malcolm).

Released in late 2020, Power Up wasn’t just another album; it was a powerful tribute to Malcolm Young, utilizing riffs and song ideas the brothers had developed together over the years. It debuted at number one in numerous countries, proving AC/DC’s undiminished connection with fans old and new. Tracks like “Shot in the Dark” and “Realize” crackled with the band’s classic energy, reaffirming their status as rock royalty. You can dive into the album that sparked this tour on services like Spotify or Apple Music.
