Chicago punk band Rise Against are returning to Australia this November and December, bringing Dropkick Murphys along for a run of shows across the country.

The tour will see Rise Against play some of their biggest Australian headline shows to date, kicking off at Melbourne's John Cain Arena on 26 November before heading to Gosford, Brisbane, Sydney and Perth.

The upcoming dates follow the release of the band's tenth studio album, Ricochet, released in August 2025 through Loma Vista Recordings.

Joining them are Boston's Dropkick Murphys, bringing their blend of punk rock and Celtic influences to the tour. The two bands will also play shows in Christchurch and Auckland before arriving in Australia.
