Following his celebrated run of dates in the UK in 2022, Sir Rod Stewart continues his reign as one of the world’s finest live performers with the announcement of a run of special summer UK shows. Kicking off at Home Park Stadium in Plymouth on Saturday 24th June and culminating with an unmissable show at Edinburgh Castle on Thursday 6th July, the UK Summer Tour dates come as part of his Global Hits Tour.
Rod’s 2023 shows are set to be filled with show-stopping classics and fan favourites from across his impressive career. “My favorite memories have been summer nights with a beer or two alongside the best fans in the world,” Rod said of the run of dates. “I’m impatiently awaiting this summer playing at a variety of special venues – football, cricket and rugby stadiums, estates and castles! We’ll all be dancing under the stars.”
Rod Stewart has had it all. He’s been lauded as the finest singer of his generation; he’s written several songs that turned into modern standards; earned countless of the industry’s highest awards, among them, two inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the ASCAP Founders Award for songwriting, New York Times bestselling author, Grammy™ Living Legend, and in 2016 he officially became ‘Sir Rod Stewart’ after being knighted by Prince William at Buckingham Palace for his services to music and charity.
Returning home to Edinburgh Castle for the first time in 13 years, Rod also revisits Plymouth, Durham and Hull for some long overdue shows and will make his first appearances at Northampton and Badminton. His gig at Badminton Estate will be the first time the Estate opens its doors to live events and is set to be a unique and magical evening. Tickets go on-sale Friday 17th February at 10am from Ticketmaster.co.uk
