News : KISS cancel their ‘End of the Road’ Australian tour due to illness.

By on November 14, 2019

Earlier this week we announced that KISS had made slight changes to their Australian tour schedule after vocalist, Paul Stanley was diagnosed with a bad case of influenza and was advised by his doctors to rest up. This eventually led to the Perth show at the RAC Arena on November 16th to be moved from the beginning to the end of the tour to December 3rd. No big deal, right?

Well, unfortunately, KISS has cancelled the entire tour as Paul Stanley has been hit with an additional inflection in his throat and requires urgent rest and medication for at least the next few weeks.

Paul Stanley made the following statement.

“Words cannot begin to convey our massive disappointment in having to cancel our End Of The Road tour of your incredible country. Our connection to you is unparalleled and decades deep. We waited as long as we could and held out hope to the last minute that my situation would clear up and we would be able to march forward. Doctor’s orders ultimately have taken precedence and finally, we now find ourselves with no choice but to surrender. With heavy hearts, KISS.”

All Australian tour dates for the ‘End of the Road’ Tour are cancelled. No word on whether these shows will be rescheduled in the future. One thing is for certain, refunds are now available.

Tickets purchased by credit or debit card will be refunded in full (including ticket insurance premium, if relevant) and patrons do not need to take any action. Patrons should allow up to 10 working days for the refund to appear in their account.

Patrons who purchased tickets in an Agency using cash or EFTPOS will be contacted via phone in the next 15 days to arrange for a full refund.

Alternatively, you can contact Ticketek at ticketek.com.au.

For Supercars Newcastle 500 tickets the concert portion will be refunded, being $65 for Gold tickets and $115 for One Last KISS tickets. All refunds will go back to the credit card it was purchased on by the 6 December.
