The Rolling Stones will tour Australia and New Zealand next year, commencing with a gig at the redeveloped Adelaide Oval on March 22. This will be the first time that the Stones have played Australia since their “A Bigger Bang” gigs in 2006.

Former member, Mick Taylor, will be a special guest for the Adelaide show.

Promoters, Fronting Touring and AEG Live, will announce full Australia/New Zealand tour details in the coming weeks.

Asian tour dates are also expected to be announced shortly.
