Guns N’ Roses have officially announced their 2026 Australia and New Zealand tour, locking in a run of massive stadium shows this November and December with Australian hard rock outfit Airbourne joining as special guests.
Legendary Los Angeles band Guns N’ Roses will return following an extensive 2025 world tour across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America, carrying momentum from two newly released singles, ‘Nothin’’ and ‘Atlas’, the tracks mark the band’s first new material since 2023 and showcase two different sides of Guns N’ Roses’ songwriting.
‘Atlas’ leans into soaring arena rock energy, while ‘Nothin’’ pulls things back with keys driven introspection and emotional guitar work, for a band that built its reputation on loud, swaggering rock records, the contrast between the two tracks hints at a group still interested in pushing its sound forward decades into its career.

Having Airbourne on the bill feels like a fitting local pairing, the Warrnambool rock band have spent years flying the Australian hard rock flag overseas, and their no frills, high voltage approach should sit comfortably alongside Guns N’ Roses’ stadium sized catalogue.
