Rod Stewart first hit it big as a solo artist in 1971 with the incomparable Maggie May. That started a career spanning more than 50 years and millions of albums sold. He’s toured the world and entertained crowds of dedicated fans who love his signature raspy voice. A Rod Stewart show is like no other concert event. He sings, he dances, and he kicks a soccer ball or two. Rod always lets his fans know just how much they mean to him and puts on one heck of a show. Sir Rod Stewart announced his One More Time Tour as the last of its kind. After the tour wraps on August 15, 2025, in St. Louis, he’s finished. However, Rod Stewart won’t retire. He is just going to slow things down a bit. After all, there’s no one quite like him, and he knows it.

He shared on Instagram this will be the last big tour, but he’s not retiring. “I’m fit, have a full head of hair, and can run 100 meters in 18 seconds at the jolly old age of 79,” he shared on Instagram. Rod added that he might change things up and play smaller venues for more intimate crowds. “But then again, I may not…” He signed his note, “The Ambiguous Sir Rod Stewart.” Fans don’t want to see Rod Stewart retire and fully support his plan. Like this person who wrote, “Love you always I love your music forever and ever . You are the rock legend, the best. If you love what you do, don’t stop doing it.” Rod, we can’t wait to see you one more time. But whatever road you choose, we’re right behind you win or lose.
