Rock legends AC/DC are officially heading to Winnipeg, bringing their massive POWER UP Tour to Princess Auto Stadium on September 20, 2026. The newly added Canadian date comes after overwhelming fan demand, giving local fans a rare chance to see one of the most iconic bands in rock history live in a stadium setting. Tickets went on sale March 20 and interest has been high as excitement builds across the city.
The POWER UP Tour, named after the band’s chart-topping album that hit No. 1 in 21 countries, has already taken AC/DC across major stadiums worldwide, including stops in South America and upcoming shows throughout North America. With a career spanning decades, over 200 million albums sold, and legendary releases like Back In Black, the band continues to prove its staying power. Featuring core members like Angus Young and Brian Johnson, the current lineup delivers the high-voltage performances fans have come to expect.
The show also adds to the growing reputation of Princess Auto Stadium as a major concert destination in Winnipeg. The venue has increasingly attracted global superstars, with Taylor Swift making history as the first major artist to headline a large-scale concert there, paving the way for future events of this magnitude. Since then, the stadium has continued to host high-profile performances, transforming it into a key stop for international tours.
With AC/DC now joining that list, September 20 is shaping up to be one of the biggest live music events Winnipeg has seen in years. For longtime fans and new listeners alike, the chance to experience one of rock’s most influential bands in a stadium environment is something that doesn’t come around often.
