Gene Simmons Postpones 17 Solo Tour Dates Until 2026

Gene Simmons has postponed 17 of the 26 dates on his upcoming solo tour, which was initially set to start on April 3. The new kickoff date is now May 2 in Peachtree City, Georgia, with several April shows and the Texas leg of May postponed until early 2026. This decision follows a wave of cancellations of multiple concerts that have left fans confused, as ticket holders received notices about several canceled events, including major venues in California and Florida. While Simmons has not publicly addressed the reasons behind the cancellations, it has been suggested that poor ticket sales could be a factor. Despite the setbacks, Simmons expressed his eagerness to return to performing after KISS's farewell tour concluded in December 2023. As of now, some May dates remain on his official schedule, alongside an August performance planned for Sturgis, SD.
