The Rolling Stones are performing in Brussels on 11 July

Great news for classic rock enthusiasts living or working in the Europan capital: The Rolling Stones are set to perform on 11 July at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels. The British rock band announced the concert date on Monday.

The venue, where the Belgian national football team usually play their home matches, will this summer be host to one of the most iconic rock bands in modern history. Starting in June, the Stones are embarking on a two-month-long European tour, during which they will play fourteen concerts in thirteen cities and ten countries. The tour is fittingly named ‘Sixty’, to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the British band.

Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood are joined by, among others, drummer Steve Jordan. He is replacing Charlie Watts, who passed away last year.

Fans who subscribe to The Rolling Stones’ newsletter will get the chance to buy tickets for the European tour from 10 a.m. on Wednesday. Pre-sales for the Brussels concert will start on Friday at 9 a.m. on the website of concert organiser Greenhouse Talent.
