US rock ‘n’ roll band Aerosmith have announced a farewell tour to mark more than five decades together.

The band, who are now all in their 70s, are well known for hits such as Dream On, Walk This Way and I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing.

They broke the “earth-shattering” news in a star-studded video on Monday, featuring celebrity pals including Sir Ringo Starr, Dolly Parton and Eminem.

The 40-date run of shows across North America will begin in Philadelphia on 2 September 2023 and will end on 26 January 2024 in Montreal, via a New Year’s Eve gig in their hometown, Boston.
