In a groundbreaking move, Swiss luxury watchmaker Rolex has confirmed its sponsorship of Led Zeppelin’s high-profile events in 2024, marking a historic partnership between the world-renowned brand and one of the most iconic rock bands in history.
This collaboration promises to elevate the fusion of luxury, rock music, and exclusive experiences, providing fans with an unforgettable journey into the world of both timeless craftsmanship and legendary rock ‘n’ roll.
The partnership is poised to bring together the distinctive worlds of Rolex, known for its precision and elegance, and Led Zeppelin, famous for their genre-defining music and larger-than-life performances. The announcement was made at a glittering press conference, attended by representatives from both Rolex and the surviving members of Led Zeppelin, including Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones.
This sponsorship will see Rolex become a key presence at several of Led Zeppelin’s upcoming events in 2024, which include high-profile music festivals, exclusive concerts, and special tribute performances in celebration of the band’s influential legacy. The collaboration is not just about branding; it represents a shared ethos between the two names, both synonymous with excellence, quality, and a relentless pursuit of perfection.
In a statement, Rolex’s CEO, Jean-Frédéric Dufour, expressed excitement over the union, stating, “Led Zeppelin’s music has transcended generations and continues to resonate with millions worldwide. This partnership offers a unique opportunity to connect two symbols of timeless legacy — Rolex and Led Zeppelin. It’s a celebration of both rock music’s past and its future, and we are thrilled to be part of this extraordinary journey.”
Led Zeppelin’s music continues to captivate audiences worldwide, with their legendary albums, such as IV, Physical Graffiti, and Led Zeppelin II, remaining integral to the rock genre.

For those with a passion for both music and fine watches, these events promise an unforgettable fusion of the two.
In addition to the high-profile events, Rolex has also committed to offering limited-edition timepieces inspired by Led Zeppelin’s legacy. These watches, expected to be unveiled at select shows, will serve as a tribute to the band’s contribution to music history.
