Since 1975, the Australian band have churned out album after album full of scorched-earth, metallic hard rock which has rarely deviated from a template of headbanging-inducing guitar riffs, flashy drums and banshee-yell vocals. In the process, AC/DC have carved out a niche somewhere between hard rock and heavy metal that’s been an inspiration to aspiring musicians—and given us crank-up-the-volume radio staples “Back In Black,” “Highway to Hell” and “You Shook Me All Night Long.”
AC/DC is bringing their “Power Up Tour” to Cleveland on 5/28, so to celebrate, the Rock Hall is hosting TWO AC/DC Fan Days on May 28th and May 29th, with museum-wide activations featuring: AC/DC playlist on repeat all day , Unique Photo Op at the Long Live Rock Letters , An AC/DC Digital Sign Photo Op , From the Vault: AC/DC Induction screening , On Exhibit: AC/DC Artifacts, Cities and Sounds: Heavy Metal, Level 0 , Angus Young of AC/DC Outfit, c. 1985 , AC/DC Promotional Dollar Bill, 1990 , “Highway to Hell” Lyrics , Rock & Roll…

Cleveland has always had a glow, but we’ve turned up the brightness. Illuminate CLE brings bold, dynamic lighting displays to the heart of Public Square, transforming the cityscape into a vibrant, immersive and illuminating experience every hour, on the hour, from dusk until 11:00pm.
This project isn’t just about lights — it’s about making Cleveland feel even more connected, walkable and alive after dark. Launched in 2025 through a partnership led by Destination Cleveland, Illuminate CLE builds on the legacy of the Terminal Tower's legendary light displays, extending its color themes across Public Square and beyond.
