Guns N’ Roses has announced additional dates for its 2026 world tour, extending the band’s global run with new stadium shows in Australia and New Zealand.

The legendary rock group will head to the region for a seven-show stretch beginning Nov. 29. The opening performance will take place alongside the Adelaide Grand Final, one of Australia’s major motor racing events.

The tour will then continue with several stops across Australia, including a performance in Townsville, before wrapping up the Australian leg on Dec. 14.

Afterward, the band will travel to New Zealand for a final show at Auckland’s Eden Park on Dec. 17.

Australian rock band Airbourne will join Guns N’ Roses as the special guest for each show on the newly announced dates.

The tour extension comes as the band approaches another milestone. In 2026, it will mark 10 years since guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan rejoined the group for the hugely successful Not in This Lifetime… Tour in 2016.

Speaking to Guitar World in a recent interview, Slash reflected on the band’s longevity and continued fan support.

“I’m amazed that so much time has gone by,” he said. “It’s incredible that we’ve kept such a strong following for all these years.”

Slash also hinted that new music from Guns N’ Roses could eventually be on the horizon.

“We have a lot of material,” he said. “It’s just a matter of sitting down and getting into it.”

However, he noted that the band’s creative process tends to unfold naturally rather than according to a strict plan.

“With Guns, you can’t force it,” Slash explained. “Things usually happen organically when the inspiration is there.”
