Gene Simmons is heading back on the road in 2026 with a new run of solo shows across Canada, adding another chapter to his ongoing post-KISS live schedule and extending a busy year of touring that already includes select U.S. and international dates.
The Canadian leg of the tour is set to launch on November 30 in Nisku, Alberta, marking the beginning of a short but wide-ranging trek through Western and Eastern Canada. From there, Simmons will make a series of stops that stretch across multiple provinces, bringing his solo band format to both casino venues and major concert halls.
The Alberta portion continues on December 1 in Calgary at the Grey Eagle Resort & Casino, followed by a December 3 performance in Lethbridge at the VisitLethbridge.com Arena. The tour then moves east into Saskatchewan, where fans can catch shows in Moose Jaw at the Temple Gardens Centre on December 5 and in Saskatoon at TCU Place on December 7.
After that, the run heads into Manitoba for a December 9 concert at Winnipeg’s Centennial Concert Hall. The Canadian itinerary wraps up on December 12 in Sydney, Nova Scotia, at Centre 200, closing out the cross-country stretch.
Tickets for all Canadian dates are scheduled to go on sale this Friday, May 1 at 10 a.m. local time, with presales beginning earlier on April 29. Given Simmons’ reputation and the scale of the venues, demand is expected to be strong as fans get their first chance to secure seats.

That brief U.S. leg starts July 17 in Fresno, California, followed by Murphys on July 18 and wrapping July 19 in Stateline, Nevada.
