Mick Jagger Net Worth 2026: Inside the Rolling Stones Frontman’s Fortune

Mick Jagger’s net worth is about $600 million, according to the 2026 Sunday Times Rich List, which values his fortune at £450 million. That puts him level with his bandmate Keith Richards and among the richest rock stars Britain has ever produced. Some other widely reported estimates are lower, at around $500 million, so treat any single number as a rough guide.

Jagger has fronted the Rolling Stones since 1962. Over more than six decades the band has sold an estimated 250 million records and, by Pollstar’s count, about $2.6 billion in concert tickets. Few acts in history have earned more from live music.

His wealth rests on three pillars: his share of the Stones’ giant tours, the post-1971 song catalog the band still owns, and a long run of songwriting royalties with Richards. A former London School of Economics student, Jagger is also known for keeping a close eye on the band’s business.

Rolling Stones tour earnings

Since the late 1980s the Stones have been one of the biggest live acts on the planet. Several of their tours set records for the highest gross of all time when they ended. Revenue is split among the band members, crew, promoters and production costs, but Jagger, as a core member and songwriter, takes one of the largest shares.

Tour	Years	Shows	Reported gross
Steel Wheels / Urban Jungle	1989–1990	About 115	About $273 million combined
Voodoo Lounge Tour	1994–1995	129	$320 million
Bridges to Babylon Tour	1997–1998	108	$274 million
Licks Tour	2002–2003	117	$311 million
A Bigger Bang Tour	2005–2007	144	$558 million
No Filter Tour	2017–2021	58	$546.5 million
Hackney Diamonds Tour	2024	20	$235 million

The trend is striking. The Stones now play far fewer shows but earn much more per night. The 2024 Hackney Diamonds Tour averaged about $13 million per show, with an average ticket price of about $277, according to Pollstar. It sold roughly 848,000 tickets across 20 North American stadium dates and was sponsored by AARP.

Early life

Michael Philip Jagger was born on July 26, 1943, in Dartford, Kent, southeast of London. His father, Basil “Joe” Jagger, was a physical education teacher who helped popularise basketball in Britain. His mother, Eva, was a hairdresser born in Sydney, Australia.

He went to Dartford Grammar School and in 1961 won a place at the London School of Economics, where he studied finance and accounting. That training later shaped how he ran the band’s money.

A chance meeting with his childhood acquaintance Keith Richards on a Dartford railway platform in 1961, over a shared love of blues records, led to the band that would make them both rich. Jagger left the LSE in 1963 to focus on music full time.

The 1960s: building the Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones played their first show at London’s Marquee Club on July 12, 1962. Manager Andrew Loog Oldham pushed Jagger and Richards to write their own songs, and the partnership soon produced hits including “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction,” “Paint It Black,” “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” and “Honky Tonk Women.”

Fame did not bring early riches. In the mid-1960s the band signed a management deal with American businessman Allen Klein. When they split at the end of the decade, Klein’s company, ABKCO, kept ownership of the recordings and many publishing rights from 1963 to 1970. ABKCO still controls those songs today, while Jagger and Richards receive songwriter royalties.

The 1970s: tax exile and owning the music

By 1970 the band owed large sums in British tax. Banker Prince Rupert Loewenstein, who managed their finances from 1968 to 2007, advised them to leave the U.K. In 1971 they moved to the south of France, where they made Exile on Main St.

The same year they launched their own label, Rolling Stones Records. From Sticky Fingers (1971) onward, the band has owned its master recordings. That later catalog, including albums such as Some Girls and Tattoo You, is one of the most valuable assets Jagger holds.

Loewenstein also helped turn touring into a business, adding sponsorship, merchandise and careful tax planning. That model set the stage for the huge stadium tours to come.

The stadium era: 1989 to 2021

After a fractious mid-1980s, Jagger and Richards reunited for Steel Wheels in 1989. The tour that followed was one of the most successful of its time and launched three decades of record-setting stadium shows.

The Voodoo Lounge Tour (1994–1995) grossed $320 million, then the highest total ever. A Bigger Bang (2005–2007) topped that with $558 million, again a record at the time. In 2006 the band also played a free concert on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro for a crowd estimated at more than a million people.

The No Filter Tour ran from 2017 to 2021, with a break during the pandemic and after drummer Charlie Watts died in August 2021. It grossed $546.5 million from only 58 shows, which shows how much ticket prices rose over those years.

Hackney Diamonds, Foreign Tongues and touring plans

In October 2023 the Stones released Hackney Diamonds, their first album of original songs since 2005. It reached No. 1 in the U.K. and many other countries and won the Grammy for Best Rock Album in February 2025. The 2024 tour that supported it grossed about $235 million.

The band followed it with Foreign Tongues, its 25th studio album, released on July 10, 2026. Produced by Andrew Watt, it features guests including Paul McCartney, Robert Smith and Steve Winwood, plus one of Charlie Watts’s last recordings. It debuted at No. 1 in the U.K., the band’s 15th chart-topping album there, and at No. 7 on the Billboard 200.

Touring has been less certain. A planned four-month U.K. and European stadium tour for 2026 was dropped in December 2025 after Keith Richards said he could not commit to it. In July 2026 Jagger said he hoped the band would play shows in 2027 and hinted that more new music could follow.

The catalog and his estate plans

Many older stars have sold their song catalogs for huge sums. Bruce Springsteen reportedly sold his to Sony for about $500 million in 2021. Jagger has said the Stones will not follow.

In a September 2023 interview with The Wall Street Journal, he was asked whether the band would sell its post-1971 catalog. He said no, and added: “The children don’t need $500 million to live well. Come on.” He suggested part of the value could one day go to charity rather than being passed on in full.

The comment drew wide attention because Jagger has eight children. It suggests that much of his wealth is tied up in music rights he plans to keep, not sell. There has been no confirmed catalog sale as of October 2026.

Solo career

Jagger has released four solo studio albums:

• She’s the Boss (1985): went platinum in the U.S. and featured the hit “Just Another Night”
• Primitive Cool (1987)
• Wandering Spirit (1993)
• Goddess in the Doorway (2001)

His 1985 duet with David Bowie, “Dancing in the Street,” was a charity single for Live Aid and topped the U.K. chart. With Dave Stewart he wrote the soundtrack for Alfie (2004), and their song “Old Habits Die Hard” won a Golden Globe. In 2011 he formed the supergroup SuperHeavy, and in 2021 he released the lockdown single “Eazy Sleazy” with Dave Grohl.

Acting and Jagged Films

Jagger has acted on and off since 1970, when he starred in Performance and Ned Kelly. Later roles include Freejack (1992), Bent (1997), The Man from Elysian Fields (2001) and the art-world thriller The Burnt Orange Heresy (2019).

He runs Jagged Films, a production company he co-founded with Victoria Pearman. Its projects include:

• Enigma (2001), a World War II code-breaking drama with Kate Winslet
• Being Mick (2001), a documentary about his life
• The Women (2008), a remake with Meg Ryan and Annette Bening
• Get On Up (2014), the James Brown biopic with Chadwick Boseman
• Vinyl (2016), the HBO music-industry drama he co-created with Martin Scorsese

A film about Miles Davis and French singer Juliette Gréco, Miles & Juliette, has been in development. Film work adds to his income, but it is small next to the Stones.

Real estate

Jagger has owned homes in England, France, the Caribbean and the U.S. Reported prices vary between sources, especially for older purchases.

Property	Year	Reported price
Stargroves, Hampshire, England	Bought 1970, sold 1979	Bought for £55,000; sold for £200,000
Château de la Fourchette, Loire Valley, France	Early 1980s	Reports range from about $477,000 to £2.2 million
Stargroves villa, Mustique, Caribbean	Owned for decades	Not disclosed; rented out to guests
Lakewood Ranch, Florida home	Bought 2020	$1.98 million; listed for $3.5 million in 2023

Stargroves, a Victorian Gothic manor, became a recording site. The Stones used their mobile studio there for tracks on Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main St., and The Who and Led Zeppelin also recorded there.

La Fourchette, an 18th-century château in Pocé-sur-Cisse near Amboise, is his main French retreat and has its own recording studio. On Mustique he owns a Japanese-style beach villa that he named after his old English manor. He has also kept homes in London, including a riverside house in Chelsea, and has spent long periods in New York, where Melanie Hamrick worked as a ballet dancer.

Personal life

Jagger married Nicaraguan-born Bianca Pérez-Mora Macias in Saint-Tropez in 1971. They had one daughter, Jade, and divorced in 1978.

He was with Texan model Jerry Hall from 1977. They held an unofficial ceremony in Bali in 1990, which a London court ruled invalid in 1999. They had four children. He later had a long relationship with designer L’Wren Scott, who died in 2014.

Since 2014 his partner has been American ballet dancer and choreographer Melanie Hamrick. Their son Deveraux was born in 2016, and the couple’s engagement was reported in 2023.

Jagger’s eight children are:

• Karis (born 1970), with actress Marsha Hunt
• Jade (1971), with Bianca Jagger
• Elizabeth (1984), James (1985), Georgia May (1992) and Gabriel (1997), with Jerry Hall
• Lucas (1999), with Brazilian TV host Luciana Gimenez
• Deveraux (2016), with Melanie Hamrick

He also has several grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Jagger was knighted for services to popular music in December 2003.

Philanthropy

Jagger tends to give locally and without much publicity. His support includes:

• The Mick Jagger Centre, a performing arts venue at his old school in Dartford
• The Red Rooster Programme, which funds music in local schools
• A scholarship in L’Wren Scott’s name at London’s Central Saint Martins art school
• Benefit shows such as Live Aid (1985) and the Concert for New York City (2001)

His 2023 remarks suggest charity could also receive a share of his music catalog’s value in the future.
