Rod Stewart is known for his raspy voice, head full of hair, and great concerts.
But now, the legendary rock star has some sad news for all his fans.
Rod Stewart, the legendary rock star known for hits like “Forever Young” and “Maggie May,” has revealed that his upcoming tour, One Last Time, will be his final large-scale world tour.
On Wednesday, Nov. 20, the 79-year-old icon took to Instagram to share this emotional decision with his fans.
In great shape and his iconic hair is still intact
“This is the end of big world tours for me,” he wrote. “But don’t worry, I’m not retiring. I still love what I do. It’s just time to play in smaller, more intimate venues.”
The rock star stated that, although his health is in great shape and his iconic hair is still intact, he feels it’s time to step away from the demanding globe-trotting lifestyle of large-scale concerts.
“I’m fit, have a full head of hair, and can run 100 meters in 18 seconds at the jolly old age of 79,” the rocker wrote on Instagram.
For fans who’ve followed Stewart’s journey over the decades, the news feels like the end of an era. His One Last Time tour will mark the final chapter of his iconic performances in huge arenas, where his unmistakable voice and rock star charisma have rocked crowds for years.
He’s ready for a change
Known for his incredible versatility, Stewart has been a constant presence in the music world, spanning genres from rock to soul and R&B. From the 70s anthems like “Do You Think I’m Sexy?” to his more recent Swing Fever album, he’s been an ever-evolving force in music.
While Stewart insists this isn’t the end of his musical journey, it’s clear he’s ready for a change.
“I’d like to move onto a Great American Songbook, Swing Fever tour the year after next — smaller venues and more intimacy,” he wrote.
But then, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer also left things a bit up in the air, joking, “But then again, I may not…” and signing off with, “The Ambiguous Sir Rod Stewart.”
Rod Stewart’s One Last Time tour will make its way across the U.S. and Canada, with 20 new shows kicking off in March in Austin, Texas, and wrapping up in St. Louis in August. While he’s ready to slow down, fans can still look forward to one final chance to experience his legendary performances up close.
