Gene Simmons 2026 North American Tour: From Vegas to Canada

Gene Simmons is set to bring his solo band to Canada for a series of seven shows, adding to an already busy 2026 schedule that includes 11 stops in the U.S. The KISS co-founder and his former bandmates have confirmed plans for the second annual KISS Kruise: Land Locked in Vegas fan event, featuring two unmasked concerts, activities, and Q&A sessions at Virgin Hotels from Nov. 12-15. Night Ranger, former KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick, and Slaughter will also be part of the lineup, similar to the 2025 event.

Simmons will kick off his U.S. tour on May 2 at Spokane Tribe Casino in Airway Heights, Washington, followed by summer stops at various venues including Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton, and Riverside Casino & Golf Resort in Iowa. July will see performances at Summerfest in Milwaukee, Save Mart Center in Fresno, Iron Stone Amphitheatre in Murphys, and Tahoe Blue Event Center in Stateline, Nevada, with a final show at Parx Casino in Bensalem, Pennsylvania on July 24.

In August, Simmons will perform at Ashley for the Arts in Arcadia, Washington, and Talking Stick Resort Hotel in Scottsdale. The tour will continue with an appearance at The Sands 2026 in Cancun from Oct. 20-25. Simmons has hinted at future tours featuring holograms of KISS, set to debut in 2028 with new songs.

The Canadian leg of the tour will start on Nov. 30 in Edmonton and conclude on Dec. 12 in Sydney, Nova Scotia, with stops in Calgary, Lethbridge, Moose Jaw, Saskatoon, and Winnipeg in between. All tour dates for the U.S. and Canada can be found on Gene Simmons' official website.
