Rod Stewart announces 2027 tour 'The Final Encore'

Rod Stewart, one of the best-selling artists in the history of recorded music, and one of the most successful touring artists of the last half century, today announced The Final Encore, marking the culmination of an extraordinary live career spanning more than six decades with his final tour.

The 2027 run will bring him back to some of the UK and Europe’s biggest arenas, beginning April 23 at Dublin’s 3Arena with dates at The O2 in London, Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam, Uber Arena in Berlin, among other dates across the UK and Europe, ending in July 24 at Hannover’s ZAG Arena. Support across the UK and EIRE dates will come from synth-pop pioneer Howard Jones. Jones will deliver a high-energy performance packed with his biggest hits like ‘What Is Love?’ and ‘Things Can Only Get Better’.

Rod Stewart said, “My dear friends, The time has come to say farewell to life on the road. After more than six decades, The Final Encore will most definitely be my last. I’ve been singing the music I love since I was 19 years old, and I’ve had the privilege of taking it around the world to all of you. It has given me a life beyond anything I could ever have imagined, and I hope I’ve given you some fond memories in return. So, may I take this opportunity to thank you for making this extraordinary life possible. I hope you’ll join me so I can thank you the best way I know how… with the music and one hell of a show. See you there.”
