One of the most popular rock acts in history - American band Guns N' Roses - will bring their powerhouse live show to South Australia when it headlines the 2026 bp Adelaide Grand Final Sunday concert on 29 November.
Following their massive 2025 tour across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America, the Gunners will take to the stage to conclude Australia’s largest domestic motorsport event.
The band’s world-renowned catalogue - which includes huge hits like Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O' Mine and November Rain - is set to soundtrack one of the biggest weekends on the national sporting calendar.
It follows the success of the 2025 bp Adelaide Grand Final which saw more than 285,700 fans through the gates – including more than 102,000 on the Sunday – more than both the AFL and NRL Grand Finals.
South Australian Motorsport Concert Manager Brian Gleeson OAM said the race's headline concerts "are annually a defining moment of the bp Adelaide Grand Final, providing electrifying entertainment long after the chequered flag".
"Guns N’ Roses is the perfect act to celebrate everything the bp Adelaide Grand Final delivers to fans – adrenaline, atmosphere and high-octane entertainment," Mr Gleeson said.
Embedded in popular culture, Guns N’ Roses’ landmark diamond-selling 1987 opus, Appetite For Destruction, stands out as the best-selling US debut album ever and the 11th best-selling US album of all time.
Following its release, Guns N’ Roses shook the world with the one-two punch of the 7x-platinum Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II, clinching the top two spots on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart upon arrival. The band has global sales in excess of 100 million units.
Fans can secure their tickets to The Jungle Zone via pre-sale, which goes live on Wednesday 11 February, via the bp Rewards app and Live Nation, with members enjoying $30 off the full price ticket.
