In celebration of their sixtieth anniversary, the legendary Rolling Stones have announced a new European Tour (named, inevitably I suppose, SIXTY), taking place thus summer and including a couple of shows at London’s Hyde Park, and their first stadium gig in Liverpool for over 50 years with a show at Anfield Stadium.
Taking in Madrid (Spain), Munich (Germany), Liverpool (UK), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Bern(Switzerland), Milan (Italy), London (UK), Brussels (Belgium), Vienna (Austria), Lyon(France), Paris (France), Gelsenkirchen (Germany), Stockholm (Sweden), the band are back where they belong, live and on stage in front of thousands of fans, starting in Madrid on June 1st.

As you would expect on the band’s 60th anniversary, The Stones – Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, once again joined by Steve Jordan on drums, will be treating fans to a set list like no other, packed full of classics such as ‘Gimme Shelter’, ‘Paint It Black’, ‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’, ‘Tumbling Dice’, ‘(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction’, ‘Start Me Up’ and many more. However, it wouldn’t be a Rolling Stones gig without some surprises each night and a selection of unexpected tracks from their formidable arsenal of songs will also be popping up in the set list. As always with the Stones, there will be a spectacular new RS ‘SIXTY’ production, including a massive stage, cutting edge lighting and state of the art video design, all to be unveiled for this long-awaited European tour.
The eagerly anticipated tour, produced by Concerts West/AEG Presents, kicks off at Wanda Stadium in Madrid (Spain) on June 1st, then Munich (Germany), Liverpool (UK), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Bern(Switzerland), Milan (Italy), London (UK), Brussels (Belgium), Vienna (Austria), Lyon (France), Paris(France), Gelsenkirchen (Germany), finishing in Stockholm (Sweden).
The Rolling Stones’ ‘SIXTY’ follows the huge success of the critically acclaimed and highest grossing USA ‘No Filter’ tour, which saw the band play to sold-out stadiums across the States, selling over half a million tickets in the Autumn of 2021.
Today, a brand-new Rolling Stones tongue for the tour, created by award-winning British designer Mark Norton, has also been unveiled. Find the new SIXTY tongue here
