My guess is they will do a traditional 12-14 date mini tour of a single continent, followed by something similar the following year.

That’s the best and safest bet and most plausible scenario, yeah, I agree.

My wishful thinking-self, though, is hoping they will embark on a two-year, two-leg-per-year world tour, armed with and spurred by the new album, and with new improved, higher motivation than the last ten years or so.

Or, to extrapolate Doc’s post above, multiple residencies in limited cities around the world in one year. That is;
Spring: Tokyo, Sydney, Buenos Aires, São Paulo, Mexico City
Summer-Autumn: NY, LA, Munich, Paris, London
3 shows each, 30 shows altogether.

Both are new models, especially the latter.

If their health and age allow…

Hey that's completely fair and we're all allowed to dream and speculate. I too wish they would play more shows per year, including multiple continents.

I think it more possible, from a business perspective, that they could do two legs, of 12 show mini tours, in two continents per year than multiple residencies across the globe.

But, who knows. Anything could happen. I think they have some surprises left in them. I just feel like those surprises will still be dictated somewhat by the practicality of an economical business model.

Or they could just do some shows for real fans, £40 a ticket first come first served maximum persons per party 4.
Give something back to the die hards, make the ticket personalised so no ticket tout motivation.
Just 10 shows , no profit,( they can afford it ) crowd atmosphere would be through the roof, real fans not corporate or casual fans.

HAHAAHAHAHAHAH – they are the Stones not the Salvation Army
(or did you just forget to add two digits to the £40??)

...They probably won’t announce anything until Spring 2024.

I think that's EXACTLY what they're going to do.
jun-jul 2024 north america
jun-jul 2025 europe

EXCEPT (and this is just a wish on my part) that they take advantage of the climatic differences in the continents and in that case they can do:

Jun-July 2024 North America: 14 shows
Oct-Nov (or Feb-Mar) 2024 South America: 7 shows

Jun-Jul 2025 Europe: 14 shows
Oct-Nov (or Feb-Mar) 2025 oceania+others: 7 shows


This way they would have a break of 2 or 3 months between two legs of the tour, and then a break until the following year

but, of course, im just dreaming...

My guess:

2024 HACKNEY tour, 2025 next new album tour. 2026-27 the hits once again, in less cities, and retire in 2028.

If all goes well, anyway.

So here's what we know.

The last ever Rolling Stones tour was in Europe, in 2022.

The last ever Rolling Stones show was in Berlin, in 2022.

There are no future shows booked.

Everything else is just rumour, chatter or made up.

Seems to me that we should just enjoy the new album and not get too hung up on live shows. We have had plenty of live shows over the past decade (all corners of the globe!) but no new album (of original material) for nearly two decades.

Let's enjoy and cherish this new album. Anything else is a bonus.[/quote

Exactly my thoughts

I have no inside information about a Stones tour next year. However, I do know a little bit about how the concert business works in the States, and what I know is enough to convince me that a Stones appearance at the new Vegas venue would be improbable, as it is operated by a rival in some sense of their usual touring partners.

Those partners, I can also advise, are planning a large event in that same part of the world next year after failing to present it more than once in recent years. Whether the Stones will participate I can't say and indeed don't know, but I have reason to believe that they might, based solely upon my understanding of the business rather than any actual information to that effect. At the risk of error, I could speculate in fact that a postponement of that event might have been a factor in the postponement of their tour this year, even if it was discrete from the tour proper.

I also took note, as someone did earlier in the discussion, of the addition of a day to the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, and shared the sense that the enlarged schedule might be pregnant with the possibility of a Stones appearance. But I would not assume that that is the meaning of the expanded schedule, not least given speculation here that a Stones tour would come later in the year.

Here's what we know:

- The Stones planned a 14-date North American tour, but pulled it at the last minute
- That tour included an appearance in Chicago attendant to a new and much-ballyhooed NASCAR downtown street race/festival, which got cut short by heavy rains; NASCAR intends to return to Chicago next year on a schedule to be released imminently
- The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival recently released its 2024 schedule adding an eighth day to the event for only the second time; the first time they did so was to allow for a special apperance by the Rolling Stones
- Ron Wood has recently said “Next year we have America pencilled in. We are hoping that is going to happen"
- BV says that nothing is signed and nothing will be announced for some time
- Stones tours generally are not announced long in advance (or signed long before they are announced)

What I know:
- I mentioned above, whether or not is pertinent to the Stones' 2024 plans, and is not hard to figure out

If the band had a venue bucket list, this seemingly would be one.
Thanks for the JF schedule info.. booking cancellable rooms.

Also believe they'll try to recreate as much as possible, the cities that were on the scrapped tour list. They'd already done the research and some marketing.. makes sense the cities on a new tour would be the same or similar as the scrapped one. At least to me, rumored that Seattle and Vancouver were on the list. That and Jazz Fest would be awesome!
