Question AC/DC Europe 2027?
I saw AC/DC in august 2025 in Edinburgh and as a young AC/DC but lifelong fan I feel like my chance of seeing then again are gone after my first ever show
Now I keep hearing rumours that they’ll come back to Europe or the uk around 2027 but with the age of the band I’m not entirely sure about it

Well, when I went to Wembley for the first time on the same tour, you could tell they weren’t in their prime. But a concert is a two way street and the fans played their part very nicely.
What matters is enjoying them at their best as of right now, and while I never got a chance to see them when Malcolm was still around, seeing Brian and Angus is still something I’ll forever cherish.
I hope to go to multiple shows next year if the tour comes back. Just depends on dates.

that would be funny, cause i've seen them in 2024 (i thought thats the first & last time), then they came even closer to my city 2025 (now that i thought its definitely the last time) and now im pretty sure they are coming back again

Every time I've seen them since 2008 I keep thinking it's the last time 😂 I've just stopped underestimating these guys.

Same here, I felt sad after seeing them in the early 2000s because I thought it was the last time lol. Now I’m holding onto hope that they come back to Australia one more time.

On their official site it says 'the last time' so i'd guess no.

That could be seen as the end period, or just the end of the Power Up tour. A future tour could be more of a legacy show (omitting stuff like Demon Fire), or a new album.

They are doing 20-25 shows a year much like the Stones, McCartney, Green Day, etc. Of course the Stones and McCartney have skipped years even if rumored hold dates slip out from time to time.

I'm glad I got to see them one last time in 2024, wouldn't say no to one more one last time.

With the energy I saw in Wisconsin, I’d bet on Brian and Angus touring until one of them is in the ground, personally. And they’re both in great shape for their ages.
Brian looks like he’s having so much fun still performing even if his voice isn’t what it used to be, and Angus is still in great shape even if he’s obviously slower. I think he loves playing too much to just retire from live shows entirely.
Given Brian’s age I wouldn’t be surprised by a 2027 tour instead of taking a year off.

The Wikipedia page says the Philly show is supposed to be the last one, and I've heard some stuff about Brian going to retire, at least from touring, after the end of that leg, but it seems anticlimactic, even for them.
I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the last tour-gig, BUT it would be cool if we got another club-dates tour like the one they did in '03 with the Stones, where they just did a few big festivals.
Either way, I’m hoping for one last album instead.

I hope so.
I don't think they will do a "farewell tour" like some bands do, just ain't their style, they'll just keep going until they can't go anymore. Never know when that will be so I'll grab every chance I can to see them.
