LONDON, UK (CelebrityAccess) – October 2023 saw the legendary British band The Rolling Stones release Hackney Diamonds – their first album of original material in 18 years. In a “not so surprising but always a surprise” announcement today (November 21), Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ron Wood announced they’re taking that material to the road. The Hackney Diamonds tour, promoted by AEG Presents’ Concerts West, kicks off on April 28 in Houston and winds up in Santa Clara, CA, on July 17.

The Stones will hit 16 cities across the US and Canada, playing a combination of early classics, fan favorites and tracks from the new album, according to the tour announcement. The tour is being sponsored by the AARP – the well-known US interest group that focuses on people over the age of 50. It certainly fits as Jagger, Richards and Wood have either hit or passed their 80th birthdays.
Tickets go on sale December 1 at 10 am local time.
News of the tour comes on the heels of a surprise Stones show last month in New York City, where they played a seven-song set and welcomed Lady Gaga to the stage for an encore. The group last played North America on the ‘No Filter’ tour in 2021, just weeks after the passing of drummer Charlie Watts, who had missed one and only one concert since joining the group in 1962.
