Attention local KISS fans, get your face paint ready to "Rock and Roll All Nite" for the last time. The band's "End of the Road Tour" is coming on Nov. 1 to Acrisure Arena.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. on March 10 at livenation.com. Members of the KISS Army will have access to a presale at 10 a.m. on March 6.

KISS has become known for the band's wild stage outfits, make-up and stage pyrotechnics — not to mention fire breathing and blood-spitting.

The band, which is currently comprised of Paul Stanley, Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer, was formed in New York City in 1973. Original guitarist Ace Frehley and drummer Peter Criss have not played in the group since the early 2000s.

KISS released a statement in 2018 promising the tour, which began the following year, would be "the ultimate celebration for those who've seen us and a last chance for those who haven't. KISS Army, we're saying goodbye on our final tour with our biggest show yet and we'll go out the same way we came in... Unapologetic and Unstoppable,"

Many dates were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 before resuming in 2021.
