Spotted this on Festileaks boards. Courtesy of Google translate:

ZZ Top comes in June and July 2016 for 20 concerts, which are all part of their new roadshow to Europe. The Hell Raisers Tour kicks off in Birmingham to travel further then to the renowned Glastonbury Festival in Pilton. Then the band to mainland Europe is going to include performances in France, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Belgium and the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland where they recorded their DVD "Live at Montreux 2013".

FINALLY

Fore whatever reason, a lot of bands don't update their own website as often as others. I find Songkick is good for "live" new dates.

but it says "Ticket sales for the concert begins Friday, December 18 at 10:00 am " you'd have thought they would have added them by now?

thank you Heineken Music Hall for that!!! seems pretty valid leak...well found by you!

i was looking at their dates this past weekend in fact, looking for patterns as for which day, etc... it seems like they do have a few 3 days-in-a-row slots fit in, so that doesn't rule out sunday, but that would be 6 gigs over 7 days, so my money is on saturday, only being that a night gig in Birmingham thursday vs a possible 5pm slot friday being too much of a turnaround for them...

surely it's Adele/PJ Harvey/ZZ Top on the pyramid saturday...can u imagine?

Thanks but I didn't actually find it personally, I literally read a forum like this where somebody had posted it.

They're doing a French festival - 'Festival Retro C Trop' - on Sunday. Probably still a good bet for Saturday though.

I'd like to see them play the the Headline last act!  Got enough songs and we'll up to it, 2 hour slot would be amazing!

[Hotchilidog]

I'd be delighted with this! Nice to have some respite from the seeming inevitability of Muse, Adele, Coldplay. A fine band that are back in touch with their bluesy roots and a back catalogue chock full of great tunes. Marvellous news if true.

Somewhere around 4/5pm Friday on the Pyramid would be epic.

[Spindles]

Would have to be sunset slot I reckon, I wonder if this is the out of the blue surprise that Emily referenced in interviews around ticket day.  That Just got paid clip is enough to convince me they'd be well worth crossing the farm for, cheers for that.
