The rest of 2019 will see KISS playing three more dates in Europe, an additional 26 in North America, nine final shows in Australia and New Zealand, and five more in Japan.
The "End Of The Road" tour is expected to continue throughout 2020.
KISS frontman Paul Stanley recently said about the "End Of The Road" tour and stage production: "People say is this bittersweet? No. If the tour is anything like this stage, it's totally sweet. We always try to raise the bar — that's just for us — but when other bands would see us, they would feel they had to up their game. Let me tell you something: everybody better start working out, because we're upping the game that much more. This is absolutely mind-bogglingly good. It's totally KISS. And I'll be looking for you on the 'End Of The Road' tour."
KISS guitarist Tommy Thayer told Australia's Hysteria Magazine that the group's farewell tour would be "the biggest" one the band has ever done "in terms of production." It will be "a whole new thing for KISS," the guitarist said. "It's just gonna be the bombastic show KISS has always been famed for."
The lineup features the current version of the band — Stanley, Thayer, bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons and drummer Eric Singer.
