One of the biggest rock & roll bands of their generation, the iconic Guns N' Roses are headed to Australia to perform an exclusive concert in Adelaide as part of the Supercars Championship Grand Final event.
After hosting AC/DC last year, with more than 285,700 fans through the gates of the four-day event, the 2026 Adelaide Grand Final will welcome a band whose catalogue needs zero introduction.
From 'Sweet Child O' Mine', 'Welcome To The Jungle', and 'Paradise City' to 'November Rain', 'Don't Cry' and 'Patience', the Gunners have soundtracked some of the biggest music moments the last 30-plus years.
"Adelaide! We're back this November headlining the 2026 bp Adelaide Grand Final Sunday Concert. See you there," the band posted.
The news also lands after the band's epic 2025 world tour that saw Axl, Slash and the gang perform concerts throughout Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America.
The band will continue that world tour with further dates in Latin America, North America and Europe this year.
Guns N' Roses also released two new singles last year; 'Nothin'' and 'Atlas' – marking the band’s first new music since 2023.
Guns N’ Roses will take the stage to conclude Australia's largest domestic motorsport event on Sunday 29 November.
"The bp Adelaide Grand Final has fast become one of the biggest sporting events in Australia," South Australian Premier, Peter Malinauskas says, "and having icons of rock Guns N' Roses headline the Sunday night will ensure the 2026 event closes on the ultimate high.
"This is exactly what the bp Adelaide Grand Final does best, combining elite motorsport with iconic world-class live entertainment to create an unforgettable experience for fans. We're thrilled to have secured not only a legendary rock band, but also the Supercars decider through to 2034.
"We're incredibly proud to continue providing South Australians and visitors alike with iconic racing and entertainment, while driving significant economic and tourism benefits for the state."
Adds South Australian Motorsport Concert Manager, Brian Gleeson OAM: "Guns N' Roses is the perfect act to celebrate everything the bp Adelaide Grand Final delivers to fans – adrenaline, atmosphere and high-octane entertainment."
Tickets on sale from 9am (local time) on 16 February.
The 2026 bp Adelaide Grand Final takes place 26-29 November, with Guns N' Roses headlining the Sunday concert on 29 November.
