Keith Richards says "there is no stopping us" as The Rolling Stones announce they will return to the UK for five live shows.

The veteran British rockers will perform on home turf in May and June for two concerts in London as well as gigs in Manchester, Edinburgh, and Cardiff.

They will also make stops in Dublin, Berlin, Marseille, Stuttgart, Prague and Warsaw.

The second part of the Stones - No Filter tour will see fans treated to hits such as Paint It Black and Brown Sugar and each night they will include a couple of unexpected tracks and randomly selected surprises.

The band will kick off at Dublin's Croke Park on May 17 ahead of the London Stadium on May 22.

They will play Manchester's Old Trafford football stadium on June 5, Edinburgh's Murrayfield stadium on June 9 and Cardiff's Principality Stadium on June 15.

They will wrap up the UK leg of the tour at Twickenham stadium on June 19.

Frontman Mick Jagger said: "This part of the No Filter tour is really special for the Stones.

"It's always exhilarating going to cities we haven't played for quite a while and also some new venues for us like Old Trafford and The London Stadium."

Richards added: "It's such a joy to play with this band. There's no stopping us, we're only just getting started really."

Guitarist Ronnie Wood said: "When I look out at the sea of people when we play all I can see is smiles.

"It's heart-warming and I'm glad we make people happy. Music makes me happy, and it makes them happy... it's infectious."

Drummer Charlie Watts added: "The Stones' audience is the glue that keeps us together.

"The best and most satisfying moment is when you are reaching the end of the show and they are all going nuts."

Australian fans will get their Stones fix in November when the band's travelling museum show Exhibitionism opens in Sydney.

With the Stones members planning on coming to Sydney for Exhibition there are rumours swirling of possible live shows.
