Rod Stewart Announces 2025 Encore Shows
Renowned Rocker Refuses to Slow Down
Legendary British rocker Rod Stewart is defying his own mortality and getting ready to hit the stage again, with 12 new dates announced for 2025. The shows are set to follow the end of his ongoing residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The announcement comes just as his Las Vegas residency is nearing its conclusion, with a special farewell message from the iconic artist himself.
Vegas, We’re Not Done Yet!
"We’re having too much fun for this to end, so we are coming back for an encore!" Stewart declared on his social media account. The encore shows, titled "Rod Stewart: The Hits," are scheduled to take place in the spring. The first six concerts are planned for March 2025, followed by two shows in May and four in June. Tickets for the new shows are set to go on sale starting from August 8 for VIP fans, while general ticket sales will begin on August 12 at 10 am PT.
From Vegas to the Road
As Stewart takes a short hiatus from his Las Vegas residency, he’s set to perform a string of additional US shows in August and September. A highlight of the tour is the co-headlining show with fellow classic rocker Billy Joel in Cleveland. Next, Stewart will head to Europe for a concert run in December, before returning to North America for two previously scheduled dates in February.
