HE hits the big 8-0 next week and Sir Mick Jagger is holding the mother of all ­parties to celebrate.

I can reveal the Rolling Stones rocker has hired the entirety of the posh Chelsea Physic Garden in South West London to hold an enormous bash with his friends and ­family later this month.

A source said: “Turning 80 is a huge milestone for ­anyone and Mick wants to make sure he throws a party no one will ever ­forget.

"It is taking place later this month and he’s spending ­thousands on making it absolutely perfect.

“The location ended up being a bit of an issue as Mick has an enormous guest list of more than 300 people, and finding the right place has been hard.

“He has now hired out the whole Physic Garden and will be having his celebrations there.

“It is going to be a very classy affair and it will be like a who’s who of the music and entertainment world.”

Chelsea Physic Garden was established in 1673 to grow plants to be used as medicines.

Now run by a charity trust, the four-acre site is one of the oldest botanical gardens in Britain and opened to the public in 1983.

The source continued: “All of Mick’s bandmates — Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards and Darryl Jones — are invited, along with Mick’s other celebrity pals.

“There will be a lavish drinks ­reception with ­beautiful food. He’s pulled out all the stops.”

It is likely Mick’s former bandmate Bill Wyman will also be invited, given he recently returned to the band after three decades to help them work on their next album, dedicated to late drummer Charlie Watts.

Charlie died from throat cancer in August 2021 at the age of 80.

A source said: “Bill hasn’t seen the band together for years, but always loved Charlie.

“This record is really a tribute to Charlie, so he couldn’t say no.”

Bill flew to LA to help work on the album, which will be the Stones’ first since Grammy-winning Blue & Lonesome in 2016. *

They’ll be raising a toast to ­Charlie that night, I’m sure.

'Bill flew to LA'... No.

I hope Mick will invite me, too

I wonder if all his exes will be there. And of course, Mick Taylor must be invited!

I hope Keith will make it.

On the 7th day God created The Rolling Stones

So Charlie died from throat cancer?

mick, keith, ronnie, and bill will be there along with a "who’s who of the music and entertainment world"

well at least since that private tribute for charlie in london that they all attended

A guest list of more than ‘300 people’? Christ, I’d struggle to rustle-up three to attend any birthday of mine.

Not feeding into any whatever but, it's usually attributed to the original source, which is what I've thought all along regarding why Charlie died.

For example:

My wife's triple negative breast cancer mutated 11 times and it spread to her brain, her stomach, elsewhere, but she died from breast cancer.

The general rule is that one dies from cancer when they die from whatever the cancer is named regardless of where it is in the body.

Mick will have finished 80 years on July 26th. That's incredible given his profession.

No mention of Steve Jordan or Chuck Leavell?

Maybe when he's 80 he'll sit down and finally finish that autobiography he was working on in the 80s. He said he was bored and would finish it when he was really old, even older than Buddy Holly.

.... wanna go

My heart sunk reading that.it’s the reason I’ve softened my tone recently, we’re not going to have a Rolling Stones to argue and carry on about or each other as a group to do it with much longer.
Everything we talk about ,It’s really what our English friends call a storm in a teacup.
Now GLS,admit how great the guitar playing is on Dirty Work and we can call it a day.

The Physic Garden is centuries old and well worth a visit (if you have any interest in gardens). It is beautifully maintained and has a great cafe from which you can look out over the lawn, where no doubt, and weather permitting, Mick’s guests will be congregating and making merry. It really is an oasis, located by the Thames in Central London.

I had thought so, but recent pix have shown him holding a cig, so I'm not so certain.
