Tickets are on sale now through Jazz Fest’s website. Special discounts are available for Louisiana residents.
Is This Rod Stewart's Final Tour?
This current tour, which first launched in 2024, is being billed as Stewart's very last large trek.
"I still enjoy what I'm doing. I love it," the singer recently told People. "You can tell it's written all over my face. Absolutely love it, but all things have to come to an end."
He clarified that he still has plenty of plans.
"I'm supposed to be doing a country album," he continued, "and I'm halfway through doing an original album."

Stewart, 80, still had his signature raspy voice in full force as he breezed through hit after hit with “The First Cut is the Deepest,” “Tonight’s The Night,” “Forever Young,” “The Motown Song,” “Young Turks,” “Maggie May” and “Downtown Train.”
