No more billboard teasers: The Rolling Stones have officially announced they will return to Pittsburgh on June 23.

Heinz Field will be part of a 15-city tour opening May 8 in San Diego.

“It’s always a pleasure to return to North America and play for some of the biggest and best crowds in the world!” Stones singer Mick Jagger said in a statement Thursday.

Digital billboards began popping up around Pittsburgh this week with phrases like “Miss You” and “Let’s Spend The Night Together.”

Tickets for the general public go on sale Feb. 14. American Express card holders can begin buying tickets Wednesday.

The concert will mark the band’s first stop in Pittsburgh in five years, and this could be the last time. The Heinz Field show will occur about a month before Jagger’s 77th birthday.

The Rolling Stones launched their No Filter tour last year, but a heart procedure for Jagger led to a delay.

“We had the best time on the road last summer, and we are ready to do it again,” guitarist Keith Richards said in a news release.

Other cities on the tour are Vancouver, Minneapolis, Nashville, Austin, Dallas, Buffalo, Detroit, Louisville, Cleveland, St. Louis, Charlotte, Tampa and Atlanta.
