Last time in Dubai

The band last played in Dubai at a huge New Year’s Eve concert in December 2020, where they headlined at Atlantis The Palm. This gig broke two Guinness World Records, as KISS played and streamed to a global audience of two million with more than 500,000 live streams.

According to lead guitarist Paul “Starchild” Stanley in an interview with Esquire, when the band was last in Dubai, they set the swimming pool at Atlantis on fire. “It was a New Year’s Eve show but it was in the midst of Covid. We were literally locked in the hotel, as were the rest of the guests and it was totally surreal.”

It would have been the bands’ fan’s last chance to see the vibrant rockers, as this is their farewell tour. The End of the Road tour, celebrating 40 years in the business, began in Canada in 2019 but was interrupted by the pandemic.
