CBS and the Recording Academy will honor Sir Rod Stewart with a two-hour live concert special, “Forever Young: A Grammy Salute to Rod Stewart Live,” airing Tuesday, May 19.

The program, scheduled for 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. ET/PT, will broadcast on the CBS Television Network and stream on Paramount+. The special celebrates the career of the Grammy Award winner and two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, who remains one of the best-selling artists in music history.

Taped in Miami, the television event features Stewart and his band as they launch the extended U.S. leg of his “One Last Time” tour. In addition to concert performances, the special includes an intimate interview with Stewart reflecting on his life, family, and career, alongside rare archival footage and behind-the-scenes access.

The production is a collaboration between Fulwell Entertainment and Grammy Studios, with support from Iconic Artists Group. Executive producers include Ben Winston, Patrick Menton, Harvey Mason jr., and Lou Fox.

Paramount+ Premium subscribers can stream the special live via their local CBS affiliate or on-demand. Paramount+ Essential subscribers will have on-demand access beginning the day after the broadcast.
