Guns N' Roses have announced more shows on their 2026 world tour. Following stints in Latin America, the US and Europe, the band will head to Australia and New Zealand for seven stadium shows.
The schedule kicks off on the final night of the Adelaide Grand Final – the annual Australian motor racing event – on November 29, followed by Oz shows in Townsville (December 2), Brisbane (December), Newcastle (December 8), Melbourne (December 11), and Sydney (December 14). The band will then cross the Tasman for a show at Eden Park in Auckland, NZ, on December 17. Support at all shows will come from Aussie rockers Airbourne.
The general ticket sales to the Melbourne and Auckland shows will begin at noon local time this Friday, while Townsville, Brisbane, Newcastle, and Sydney will go on sale an hour later. 'Jungle Zone" tickets for the Adelaide show are on sale now, while artist and other pre-sales will run this week, with a Night Train presale already underway.
Full dates below.
Next month marks the 10th anniversary of Slash and Duff McKagan rejoining Guns N' Roses for the 2016 Not in This Lifetime... Tour. "I’m tripping that so much time has gone by," Slash told Guitar World last year. "I’m blown away that we’ve managed to have such a great following this whole time."
A new album, however, has yet to materialise.
"There’s so much material at this point," says Slash. "It’s a matter of having the discipline to sit down and fucking get into it. But the thing with Guns is, in my experience, you can never plan ahead. You can never sit down and go: 'We’re going to take this time, and we’re going to do this.'

"Every time we’ve done that, it falls apart. It just happens spontaneously through some sort of inspiration that triggers it. And the next thing you know it’s off and running. So it’s coming. I know it’s coming because everybody is thinking about it. It’ll just happen when it happens."
