Early access VIP packages and presale tickets will become available starting Oct. 17 while tickets for the general public will release on Oct. 21.

According to the legendary musician, the tour will feature both new material and classics from his time with Pink Floyd.

"We are going to take a new show on the road, the content is very secret," Waters said in a statement announcing the tour.

"It'll be a mixture of stuff from my long career, stuff from my years with Pink Floyd, some new things. Probably 75 percent of it will be old material and 25 percent will be new, but it will be all connected by a general theme. It'll be spectacular like all my shows have been," he continued.

Waters is coming off a recent performance as part of the star-studded Desert Trip concert that also featured headlining acts such as the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney and Bob Dylan.
