KISS's Upcoming Las Vegas Show

KISS

KISS has just dropped some exciting news! The iconic rock band has announced plans for an “unmasked” concert in Las Vegas later this year. Mark your calendars for a rockin’ good time as this show is part of the KISS Army fan club’s 50th anniversary celebrations, which will unfold at the Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas from November 14-16, 2025.

This concert will be particularly special as it marks KISS's first live performance since wrapping up their farewell tour in 2023. It’s a chance for fans to experience the legendary band in a new light!

Special Guests and Activities

According to an email sent to fans, the concert promises a lineup of festivities, including “a special live performance from former KISS member Bruce Kulick, along with other special guests, activities, exclusive experiences, and more.”

Kulick, who was a part of KISS during their dynamic years, played on five albums before leaving the band in 1996. His return adds an extra layer of excitement to this already thrilling event.

"KISS apparently ARE doing a non-make up show in Vegas. This November 14 – 16, 2025. Special guest Bruce Kulick." – Rock N Roll Experience

Recent Developments with Gene Simmons

This Las Vegas concert comes on the heels of Gene Simmons postponing 17 dates on his upcoming solo tour that was to take place in April and May. The tour was set to kick off at the Graton Resort & Casino in Rohnert Park, California on April 5, but in a recent update from Christina Vitaglano, who manages Simmons’ VIP fan experience packages, it was announced that the April dates and the Texas leg in May have been postponed until early 2026.

The Future of KISS: Avatar Show in the Works

KISS is also busy working on their upcoming avatar show, which Paul Stanley has described as “Cirque Du Soleil meets Star Wars and a KISS concert.” This unique production is being crafted with the help of the company that brought the ABBA’s ‘Voyage’ show to life, where the Swedish pop group performed via holographic virtual avatars.

In April of last year, Pophouse acquired KISS’s catalogue, brand name, and intellectual property. The band first teased their “new era” during the final show of their farewell tour in December 2023 at Madison Square Garden, where their avatars took the stage to perform ‘God Gave Rock And Roll To You.’

Shortly after that, Gene Simmons confirmed that their virtual avatars will continue to improve, with a whopping investment of about $200 million being made into the technology.
