Guns N’ Roses are set to bring full-throttle rock theatre to South Australia, announced as headliners for the bp Adelaide Grand Final Sunday Concert on 29 November 2026. Paradise City will roar into the City of Churches as the band closes out Australia’s largest domestic motorsport event, fusing burnt rubber with stadium-sized rock catharsis.
The announcement lands at a moment of renewed momentum for Guns N’ Roses. Fresh from a sprawling 2025 world tour across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America, the band enter 2026 with purpose, underscored by the release of two new singles, Atlas and Nothin’. Together, they sketch out two sides of the band’s enduring appeal: Atlas surges with classic urgency and scale, while Nothin’ leans inward, keys-forward and emotionally weighted, proof that Guns N’ Roses are still willing to explore contrast rather than coast on legacy.
Their appearance at the bp Adelaide Grand Final positions the band at the intersection of two Australian obsessions: elite motorsport and arena rock. The event has been crowned Supercars Event of the Year for four consecutive years, and in 2025 drew more than 285,700 fans through the gates, eclipsing attendance figures for both the AFL and NRL Grand Finals. Adding Guns N’ Roses to the final night feels less like stunt booking and more like escalation, a soundtrack calibrated for maximum impact as the Supercars season reaches its climax.
Expect a setlist built on one of rock’s most recognisable catalogues, songs that have long outgrown genre boundaries and now function as communal release valves. In the context of Adelaide’s street circuit, those anthems are primed to land with renewed force, amplifying the scale and spectacle of an already colossal weekend.
Tickets for “The Jungle Zone” will be available via pre-sale from Wednesday 11 February through the bp Rewards app and Live Nation, with members receiving $30 off full-price tickets. An artist pre-sale also opens at 9am on Wednesday 11 February via gunsnroses.com, running until Sunday 15 February at 5pm. With momentum on their side and new material in circulation, Guns N’ Roses’ return to Australia is shaping up as one of the defining live moments of 2026.
