The 79-year-old music legend, known for classics like “Forever Young” and “Maggie May,” recently announced that his upcoming One Last Time tour will mark the end of his large-scale world tours. On November 20, Stewart took to Instagram to make the heartfelt announcement.
“This is the end of big world tours for me,” he revealed in his post. “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.”

Stewart assured fans that he remains in excellent health and good spirits, even poking fun at himself: “I’m fit, have a full head of hair, and can run 100 meters in 18 seconds at the jolly old age of 79.” Despite his physical vitality, the rock icon feels it’s time to step away from the demanding, globe-trotting lifestyle of massive arena concerts.
For fans who’ve followed his career spanning decades, this announcement signals the end of an era. Stewart’s One Last Time tour will mark his final appearances in large venues, where his unmistakable voice and electrifying stage presence have thrilled audiences for years.
