Rod Stewart is preparing for another major run across the UK and Europe, with a new tour called The Final Encore scheduled for 2027.
The singer announced the 21-date trek as a farewell to life on the road after more than six decades of touring. The schedule begins in Dublin on April 23 and continues through the UK and several European cities before wrapping up in Hanover, Germany, on July 24.
The tour will give fans another chance to hear songs from Stewart’s extensive catalog, which spans rock, pop, and soul and includes decades of familiar hits. Howard Jones is set to join him as the special guest for the UK and Ireland concerts.
While The Final Encore is being presented as Stewart’s final large-scale tour, it does not necessarily signal a complete retirement from music. The veteran performer has left open the possibility of occasional appearances after the tour concludes.
General ticket sales are scheduled to begin October 2, 2026.
