Overview
- KISS released the full schedule on Wednesday and confirmed KISS Kruise: Land‑Locked in Vegas will run Nov. 13–15 at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas with the program now on sale.
- The centerpiece is a one‑night Ace Frehley All‑Star Tribute in which Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer will each perform a Frehley‑picked song backed by the Ace Frehley Band and joined by guest artists.
- The weekend will include two unmasked KISS concerts — one acoustic and one electric — plus a Nov. 12 kickoff party where the Ace Frehley Band will perform KISS’s Rock and Roll Over album in full.
- Organizers packaged the event as a resort takeover with band member‑hosted activities, museum and archival displays, exclusive merchandise, meet‑and‑greets, and three‑night hotel and concert packages sold at KissKruiseVegas.com.
- Producers Pophouse, Vibee and Topeka framed the event as likely KISS’s only live appearance in 2026, a move that spotlights Frehley’s legacy and channels revenue into premium in‑person fan experiences as the band explores digital avatar shows.
