One of the most iconic rock bands of all time, The Rolling Stones, are reported to be performing their final show at the Glastonbury Festival in 2013, according to The Mirror.

After 50 years together as a band (since drummer Charlie Watts joined in '63), the band will be playing a handful of shows around the UK and the US before the rumoured grand finale at Glastonbury next June.

"All four members have agreed that next year is the right time to have one final hurrah and put on the gig of their lives," a source close to the band told The Mirror.

"It's a case of now or never, and obviously Glastonbury is the most important festival on the circuit. Everybody's incredibly excited ... it's a final bow."

Original bass player Bill Wyman, who quit the band in 1992, is rumoured to be considering re-joining the group for the final show.

The Rolling Stones have not confirmed or denied the rumours.
