The Rolling Stones have announced they will play two European festivals this summer, in Holland and Belgium.

The rock legends will play at Holland's Pinkpop Festival on June 7 and Belgium's TW Classic Festival on June 28. Both shows will be part of their 14 on Fire tour, which has so far seen Mick Jagger and co play dates in Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

Announcing the European festival dates, frontman Jagger said: "I love festivals in the summertime and can't wait for the tour to get to Europe." Bandmate Keith Richards added: "Let’s keep this show on the road… the band are in top form so I’m really looking forward to getting back to Europe."

Watch the Stones play 'Jumpin' Jack Flash' at Hyde Park below:

Stones classics such as 'Jumpin' Jack Flash', 'Gimme Shelter', 'Paint It Black' and 'Tumbling Dice' will all be aired during the European dates, the band have promised.

Meanwhile, Keith Richards have announced he is set to write a children's book. Gus and Me: The Story Of My Grandad and My First Guitar is based on Richards' experiences with his grandfather Theodore Augustus Dupree who introduced Richards to music. The book will be illustrated by Richards' daughter Theodora, and is set to be released September 9.
