Canada is getting ready to PWR/UP with AC/DC. The legendary rock band are currently passing through the country on their global stadium tour, and they’re giving creating an exclusive pop-up in each city with exclusive merch, props, visuals, photo opportunities, themed food and a giveaway for a guitar signed by Angus Young.

AC/DC are Canada down, adding a Canada-themed jersey featuring the band’s logo and a maple leaf to the pop-ups. The temporary shop also carries limited-edition, city-specific shirts and event posters.


After kicking off in 2024, the PWR/UP tour made its first Canadian stop at Vancouver’s BC Place in April 2025, before circling back to Western Canada this year for a more extensive run of Canadian shows. After playing Edmonton’s Commonwealth Stadium on Aug. 9 and returning to Vancouver’s BC Place on Aug. 13, AC/DC will play Montreal’s Parc Jean-Drapeau on Sept. 12, Toronto’s Rogers Stadium on Sept. 16 and Winnipeg’s Princess Audio Stadium on Sept. 20, a final string of Canadian stops before the tour wraps up one week later.

The pop-ups are taking place in iconic locations and music venues including Montreal’s Foufounes Électriques and Vancouver’s Commodore Ballroom, while the Toronto location is being hosted at the Steam Whistle Brewery. The pop-up calls back to many of their most legendary shows by including performance pieces like one of the 21 cannons from the band’s show at Donington Park in England in 1991, as well as Angus Young’s stage-worn schoolboy suit.

The PWR/UP trek is named after AC/DC’s 2020 album Power Up, their most recent effort which made a triumphant No. 1 debut on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart and the Billboard 200, more than 40 years into the band’s career.

BLACKPINK’S Lisa Is 100% ‘That B–ch On Your TV’ In Fierce, High-Fashion Video For Return To Rap Solo Single ‘SaWaDiKa’: Watch

The hard-charging song is the first taste of the K-pop superstar's upcoming Press Play (Oct. 23) EP.

BLACKPINK‘s Lisa comes out swinging on her hard-charging single “SaWaDiKa.” And if you’re not convinced that her return to rap is complete, just check out the first, shouted lines of the song whose title translates into “hello” in Thai, because Lisa is cordially inviting you to bask in her badness.

“Hello Sawadika/ Yeah you know my wrist is cold/ Got this timepiece from Geneva/ If you know it then you know,” she raps at the top of the high-fashion, action-heavy video for the song, which dropped on Friday (Sept. 4) and was shot in the singer’s native Bangkok, Thailand. And, just in case you missed the ice-cold message, there’s one more thing on her mind: “I’m that b–ch on your TV/ And my Ferrari indigo/ La la lisa la diva/ Sawadika there she go.”
