"We love playing Latin America and are excited about going to
some cities for the first time! The audiences are among some of
the best in the world, they bring incredible energy!" frontman
Mick Jagger said in a press statement.
The tour will kick off in Santiago, Chile, on Feb. 3 and will
include concerts in Brazil and Mexico City as well as Lima and
Bogota. Tickets will go on sale on Nov. 9
The "America Latina Ole" stadium tour follows the British band's
2015 North American tour.
Guitarist Keith Richards said earlier this year that the band
plan to record what would be their first album of new material
since 2005's "A Bigger Bang" after the South American tour. But
Thursday's announcement made no mention of new music to come
from the band.
