After an epic and storied 45 year career that launched an era of rock n roll legends, KISS announced that they will launch their final tour ever in 2019, appropriately named End Of The Road. The initial announcement was made a month ago on NBC’s America’s Got Talent which sent the internet into overdrive with fans hoping their city would get one final KISS show. The band announced today the first set of dates and cities in North America, produced by Live Nation. International markets were also announced simultaneously today. Tour itinerary detailed below; KISS will be offering VIP experiences and special KISS Army fan presales.
KISS Meet & Greet Experiences will be available beginning October 30th at 10am local time through kissonline.com. KISS Army fan club presales will begin October 31st at 10 am local time also through kissonline.com. Citi is the official presale credit card for the End of the Road World Tour. As such, Citi cardmembers will have access to purchase U.S. presale tickets beginning October 31st at 12:00pm local time until Thursday, November 1st at 10:00pm local time through Citi’s Private Pass program.

Known for their trademark larger-than-life blistering performances, KISS has proven for decades why they are hands down the most iconic live show in rock n roll. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers who have sold more than 100 million albums worldwide have said this tour is devoted to the millions of KISS Army fans.
“All that we have built and all that we have conquered over the past four decades could never have happened without the millions of people worldwide who’ve filled clubs, arenas and stadiums over those years. This will be the ultimate celebration for those who’ve seen us and a last chance for those who haven’t. KISS Army, we’re saying goodbye on our final tour with our biggest show yet and we’ll go out the same way we came in… Unapologetic and Unstoppable,” said KISS.

Okay, so from the new picture it’s still Thayer and Singer but newly designed or pimped costume … no Ace or Peter in sight??? I’m not going. But they seem to be confident cos over here in Germany the five dates announced today are all stadiums … Kiss have never played let alone sold out stadiums here before as a single act, so either there will be more to it than have already announced (through this picture) or else there will be another bigger band as a support act … I doubt that local promoters go for big venues if all they will get is the Kiss that was last here in medium-sized venues in 2017 …
I will be there . Philly in March !
Interesting no multi nights at same arena – especially MSG. Tells you everything right there.
Will be glad when this once awesome circus has ended.
I thought the same exact thing. I found it a bit odd that they were not playing MSG for more than one night, they are NY band.
There are some open dates where shows could be added, Chicago, Detroit, MSG.
Wait for demand to increase if former members are brought back. Otherwise, I’ll pass.
Looking at the schedule – does not leave a lot of time to move the stage from one arena to another – if they are considering multiple nights.
Believe will be a new stage and would think Kiss would like to leave with a bang.
Does not look good for Ace or Peter – and you know what? With all of Paul’s negativity regarding both of them (more for Peter), I would tell him to “eff- off” unless it was for a payday they agree to.
Hopefully Bruce makes an appearance – unless they gave him “hush money” they screwed him too.
Once the tour is over, Eric can drum where ever he wants and Tommy can go back to doing whatever he was doing before.
Tommy will go and reform Cold Gin with Jamie St. James and continue portraying Ace in a K$$ tribute band.
Not to be redundant, but Rattle my brother, you are absolutely right! Tommy has made a career and a good living out of impersonating Ace. I mean, what else can he do? After the End Of The Road for KISS, it’ll be “Cold Gin” time again for Mr. Thayer!
I guess they will play more continents after this first US leg .. they will surely end the tour in MSG/New York at one point in the future.
Dana from what I last heard, they said once they hit your city your done that’s it, that’s their thank you?
They said tour for three years and you think like you said their a NY band you think they have their final show in their home city like Black Sabbath did and their playing a lot back to back dates will Stanley’s voice hold up?
And like I said their farewell tour for me was in 2000’s
When they put on good show with original members
I think about time to have the guy with big hook pull em off stage like see in the cartoons or just Gong em
Charles,
Great point about ending the tour in their hometown.
German dates are in June, more dates on my continent are surely announced around May and June .. then there is Japan and Australia etc
