The band’s line-up will consist of singer Brian Johnson, guitarists Angus and Stevie Young, drummer Matt Laug (who played with the legendary rock group for their one-off performance at heavy metal festival Power Trip last year) and Chris Chaney in place of Cliff Williams on bass guitar.
In a statement, AC/DC said: “We are thrilled to finally announce the ‘Power Up’ European Tour. Angus, Brian, Stevie and Matt will be joined by Chris Chaney to carry the torch for Cliff.”
Williams retired in 2016, but did make an appearance for Power Trip.
Tickets will go on sale on February 16.
