There's no tour, but Billy Joel and Sting are coming to Tampa Bay for a one-off show this spring.

Tickets to see Billy Joel and Sting play Tampa's Raymond James Stadium on Saturday, Feb. 24 go on sale to the public on Friday, Oct. 20 at 10 a.m. Ticket prices have yet to be announced.

The Tampa Bay Sports Authority and Live Nation made the announcement today at a press conference, noting that the show at Raymond James Stadium is the first time Joel and Sting have performed together. The two rock icons will perform separate sets, but likely join in on each others performances.

Joel, 74, last visited Tampeños for a 2020 show at Amalie Arena, while Sting was last in town for an intimate 2022 gig at the Hard Rock Event Center.
