Mick Jagger has tested positive for COVID resulting in the Rolling Stones postponing their show tonight (June 13) in Amsterdam.
Per a statement from the band, “The Rolling Stones have been forced to call off tonight’s concert in Amsterdam at the Johan Cruijff ArenA, following Mick Jagger testing positive after experiencing symptoms of COVID upon arrival at the stadium.”
The statement continued, “The Rolling Stones are deeply sorry for tonight’s postponement, but the safety of the audience, fellow musicians and the touring crew has to take priority. The show will be rescheduled for a later date. Tickets for tonight’s show will be honored for the rescheduled date. Standby for details.”
Jagger issued his own personal statement saying, “I’m so sorry that we’ve had to postpone the Amsterdam show with such short notice tonight. I have unfortunately just tested positive for COVID. We aim to reschedule that date ASAP and get back as soon as we can. Thank you all for your patience and understanding.”
The next tour date on the Stones’ European tour is in Bern, Switzerland on June 17. As of publishing, that show is currently going on as scheduled.
We send well wishes to Jagger for a full, speedy recovery.
