AC/DC wrapped up their Power Up European tour with the 24th and final gig on Saturday at Dublin’s Croke Park, marking the end of their first extended tour in eight years. The setlist and video from the show can be found below. The Australian rock titans’ 21-song set list was identical to what they had used on the majority of their Power Up tour dates. They began with the one-two punch of “If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It)” and “Back in Black” before turning gears to play “Demon Fire” from 2020’s Power Up. They played a multitude of favorites from across their historic history, including “Hells Bells,” “Shoot to Thrill,” “Highway to Hell,” “Let There Be Rock,” “Rock ‘n’ Roll Train,” and “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt.”
How AC/DC Defied the Odds on the Power Up Tour
The Power Up tour marked AC/DC’s first extended outing since 2016’s Rock or Bust tour, which was plagued with difficulty. Singer Brian Johnson had to bow out of the trek due to hearing loss, and the band recruited Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose for nearly two dozen shows.
Four years later, Johnson returned to the fold for Power Up, but it remained unclear whether he was healthy enough to tour with AC/DC. The band made its long-awaited return to the stage in late 2023 at Indio, California’s Power Trip festival. Although some still questioned whether AC/DC — particularly the 76-year-old Johnson — could handle the rigors of a full tour, the band assuaged their doubts when they launched the Power Up trek in May.
