List of awards and nominations received by AC/DC

AC/DC are an Australian rock band formed in Sydney in November 1973 by brothers Angus and Malcolm Young. Although the band are variously described as hard rock, blues rock; and heavy metal, its members have referred to themselves as "a rock and roll band, nothing more, nothing less". AC/DC underwent several line-up changes before releasing their first album, High Voltage, in 1975. Membership subsequently stabilised after the release of Let There Be Rock (1977), with the Young brothers, Phil Rudd on drums, Cliff Williams on bass guitar and Bon Scott on lead vocals. Seven months after the release of Highway to Hell (1979), Scott died of alcohol poisoning, and was replaced by English singer Brian Johnson, with whom AC/DC released their second best-selling album, Back in Black.

The band's next album, For Those About to Rock We Salute You, was also highly successful and was their first album to reach number one in the Billboard 200. Rudd left AC/DC and was replaced by Simon Wright, who was himself replaced by Chris Slade six years later. AC/DC experienced a commercial resurgence in the early 1990s with the release of The Razors Edge (1990); it was their only record to feature Slade, as Rudd returned in 1994 and has since recorded five more albums with the band, starting with Ballbreaker (1995). Their fifteenth studio album, Black Ice was the second-highest-selling record of 2008. Malcolm retired in 2014 due to early-onset dementia and was replaced by the Young brothers' nephew Stevie Young, who debuted on the album Rock or Bust; Malcolm died three years later. Slade was replaced by Rudd on the Rock or Bust World Tour, due to legal troubles against Rudd. In 2016, Axl Rose replaced Johnson for the rest of the tour due to hearing loss, and Williams retires at the end of the tour. The band's seventeenth studio album Power Up was released on 13 November 2020.

In 1982, AC/DC's first ever nomination at an award show was from the American Music Awards for Favorite Pop/Rock Band/Duo/Group. The group received several nominations from the Grammy Awards, including Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance – Vocal or Instrumental for Blow Up Your Video in 1989, Best Hard Rock Performance for one album and three songs in different years: The Razors Edge in 1991, "Moneytalks" in 1992, the live version of "Highway To Hell" in 1994 and "War Machine" in 2010, Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for 'Rock 'n' Roll Train" in 2009, Best Rock Album for two albums in different years: Black Ice in 2010 and Power Up in 2022, and Best Rock Song and Music Video for "Shot in the Dark" in 2022. The band also received a nomination for Best Heavy Metal/Hard Rock Video for "Thunderstruck" in 1991 from the MTV Video Music Awards. In 2009, AC/DC received four nominations for their 2008 album Black Ice in the ARIA Music Awards which included Best Rock Album, Highest Selling Album, Best Group and Best Album. They won the awards for Best Rock Album and Highest Selling Album. Overall, AC/DC have received 50 nominations and has won 17 awards.
