Mick Jagger tested positive for corona, Stones concert canceled

Lead singer Mick Jagger (78) has tested positive for corona. He was already in the stadium when he got corona symptoms. The test then gave a positive result, the band said in a statement.

The visitors could enter at 5 pm, the support act was to start at 7:30 pm. At 8.45 pm the Stones would then take the stage.

The Stones are touring to commemorate the band’s 60th anniversary. Their next performance is scheduled in Switzerland on June 17, next Friday. It is unclear whether that performance will continue.

There will be a new date for the concert in Amsterdam, says a spokesperson for organizer Mojo. The tickets purchased for this remain valid. The Stones last performed in the Netherlands five years ago.
