In celebration of the 50th performance of Rod Stewart: The Hits, Rod today announced that he will extend his original two year contract at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace and will return with his critically acclaimed show for two more years beginning this fall.
As the two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Famer wraps his summer run of performances this week, nine new November concerts have been added from November 6 through 24.
“I’m thrilled to add another two years,” said Stewart. “The Colosseum at Caesars Palace is literally one of the best venues in the entire world; there’s not a bad seat in the house and it sounds great — I love it there.”
With his singular voice, narrative songwriting and passionate live performances, Rod Stewart has built one of the most successful and enduring music careers of all time. In a career spanning more than five decades, he has amassed sales of more than 150 million albums worldwide and has countless chart-topping hits and industry accolades – including 18 Grammy nominations, two inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and in 2007, he was bestowed Commander of the British Empire (CBE) by the Queen of England.
In fall 2012, Stewart became a New York Times Bestselling author with the release of his highly-anticipated autobiography. In May 2013, Stewart released Time, his first rock album in a dozen years, on Capitol Records. The album features 11 original tracks and marks Rod’s return to songwriting after nearly two decades. Time entered the UK Albums Chart at No. 1, setting a new British record for the longest gap between chart-topping albums by an artist — and in the US, it marked Stewart’s highest-charting album of original material since 1979.
