Sixty Years of The Rolling Stones - Anniversary Event

On Thursday 12th July 1962, six young Londoners; Jones, Jagger, Richards, Stewart, Taylor (and whoever the drummer was), played their first ever gig at The Marquee jazz club in Oxford Street. Initially billed as The Rollin' Stones they set out to play the music of black America... The rest, as they say, is history.

To celebrate the 60th anniversary of this momentous occasion, Music Heritage London, in association with The Marquee, bring you the ultimate, ticket only experience in the company of celebrities from the era. Ticket options include:

• THE SIGHTSEEING TOUR. Before the show, hop on a vintage 1960s double-decker London bus for a guided tour of Stones related venues and locations in Chelsea and Kensington, including a stop outside the flat where Brian, Mick and Keith were living in July 1962. The bus will depart at 6.00pm from outside Sloane Square tube station and deliver you to the 100 Club in Oxford Street by 7.00pm, in good time to grab a drink.

On 31 May 1982, The Rolling Stones played an unannounced show at the 100 Club as a warm-up for their European tour, and returned again on 23 February 1986 to play a tribute show for their recently deceased pianist Ian Stewart, a concert that was to be their only live performance between 1982 and 1989.
