Legendary rock icons AC/DC are charging up their amps for a long-awaited return to the stage, announcing their highly anticipated “Power Up” North American Stadium Tour. Set to electrify 13 cities, this marks the band’s first U.S. tour in nearly a decade. Among the powerhouse dates, Chicago’s Soldier Field is poised to host what could be the Midwest’s most epic rock event of the year on May 24, 2025.

Kicking off in Minneapolis on April 10, the tour brings the iconic Aussie rockers to some of the most storied venues across the continent. The Chicago date is particularly exciting, as Soldier Field has a rich history of hosting some of the biggest names in music. AC/DC’s visit promises to add another chapter to that legacy, thrilling fans with their legendary anthems, stage energy, and jaw-dropping pyrotechnics.

The current lineup features a blend of classic and newer members: Angus Young shredding on lead guitar, Brian Johnson belting out vocals, Stevie Young handling rhythm guitar, Matt Laug on drums, and Chris Chaney on bass. This updated lineup has already proven their chemistry with the release of Power Up, their 2020 album, and fans can expect the band to bring that same energy live.

For Chicago fans, this show is particularly significant. Soldier Field offers a fitting backdrop for AC/DC’s larger-than-life sound, blending its historic aura with modern stadium acoustics. Expect the roar of the crowd to echo across the lakefront as AC/DC unleashes classics like “Back in Black,” “Highway to Hell,” and “Thunderstruck,” alongside newer hits.

Tickets for the “Power Up” tour, including the Soldier Field stop, go on sale Friday, December 6, at noon local time. Given the band’s massive following and the rarity of such tours, demand is expected to skyrocket, so fans are urged to secure their spots as soon as possible.

AC/DC’s return to Chicago is more than just a concert — it’s a celebration of rock and roll’s undying spirit, a chance for generations of fans to unite under the electric banner of one of the greatest bands of all time. With a catalog of timeless hits, unparalleled showmanship, and the unmistakable energy that has defined their career, this will undoubtedly be a night to remember.
