Powerhouse Rock Icons Guns N’ Roses announce New Zealand leg of World Tour 2026
Live Nation has today announced that powerhouse rock icons Guns N’ Roses, will return to Australia and New Zealand for a massive run of stadium shows this November and December.
This follows their extensive 2025 tour across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America, and continues an exciting new chapter with the release of two brand new singles— “Nothin’” and “Atlas” — marking the band’s first new music since 2023. Showcasing two distinct sides of the band’s creative range, “Atlas” delivers soaring rock urgency while “Nothin’” leans into keys-forward introspection and emotional guitar work.

Create or sign in to your account and check that your email, phone and payment details are up to date.
Keep Your Phone Close
You will be asked to enter a sign-in verification code, which will be sent by text. To avoid any issues accessing the queue, please check your account now and verify that your mobile phone number is correct.
Prepare for Checkout
Notify your bank for any required purchase authorisations or to check spending limits.
Stick To One Device & One Tab Only
Join the queue from one browser on one device. Additional attempts to join could kick you out of the queue. Accessing the sale from multiple tabs may also cause you to lose your place in line.
Remember: there are a lot of fans
We’re expecting this to be a very popular event. When a popular event goes on sale there are thousands, and sometimes hundreds of thousands, of customers all attempting to purchase tickets at the same time. Tickets are sold as long as seats are available, and when an act is this popular, sometimes they go very quickly.
Be sure to follow the above tips to ensure you have the best chance of snapping up some tickets.
Guns N’ Roses will be coming to New Zealand in December 2026. Tickets are on sale via Ticketmaster.co.nz
