Breaking News: Axl Rose Announces Solo World Tour with Angus Young — Dates and Cities Revealed
In a surprise announcement that’s sending shockwaves through the rock world, Axl Rose has confirmed a solo world tour — and he’s not going alone. The iconic Guns N’ Roses frontman will be joined by none other than AC/DC’s legendary guitarist Angus Young for a historic run of shows set to ignite stadiums across the globe.
The tour, officially titled “Axl Rose: Electric Revival – Featuring Angus Young”, will kick off this fall and span five continents, bringing fans a once-in-a-lifetime experience. This collaboration reunites two of hard rock’s most electrifying performers, whose previous live chemistry during AC/DC’s Rock or Bust tour left fans clamoring for more.
Rose made the announcement via a livestream earlier today, accompanied by Young in a rare joint appearance. “We’ve talked about this for a while,” Rose said. “It just felt like the right time to do something different — something loud, raw, and real.” Young added, “It’s not AC/DC, it’s not Guns — it’s just pure rock and roll mayhem.”
The setlist, according to insiders, will be a mix of Guns N’ Roses deep cuts, AC/DC classics, and a few surprise covers, along with new collaborative material written specifically for the tour. Fans can expect thunderous renditions of “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Highway to Hell,” and a brand-new track titled “Devil’s Choir.”
Kicking off in Los Angeles on September 10, the tour will hit 34 cities worldwide, including stops in New York, London, Sydney, Tokyo, São Paulo, and Berlin. The North American leg includes dates in major cities like Chicago, Toronto, and Atlanta, before heading overseas in October.
Here are some of the confirmed tour dates:
Sept 10: Los Angeles, CA – SoFi Stadium
Sept 14: New York, NY – MetLife Stadium
Sept 20: Chicago, IL – Soldier Field
Oct 2: London, UK – Wembley Stadium
Oct 10: Berlin, DE – Olympiastadion
Oct 20: Sydney, AU – Accor Stadium
Nov 1: Tokyo, JP – Tokyo Dome
Nov 10: São Paulo, BR – Allianz Parque
Tickets will go on sale Friday, with a fan club pre-sale beginning 48 hours earlier. VIP packages will include meet-and-greets, exclusive merch, and soundcheck access — a dream opportunity for die-hard fans.
Critics are already predicting this tour to be one of the highest-grossing rock events of the decade, comparable to previous Guns N’ Roses reunion tours and AC/DC’s blockbuster roadshows. The industry buzz is intense, and promoters are reportedly preparing for record-breaking demand.
What’s most exciting is the artistic freedom both musicians now have. Without the constraints of their respective bands, Rose and Young are expected to experiment with setlist structures, new song arrangements, and theatrical stage production, promising a fresh experience even for seasoned fans.
In a music world increasingly driven by nostalgia, this tour aims to do more than relive the past — it seeks to redefine the present. “It’s not about going back,” Rose said. “It’s about pushing forward, louder than ever.”
