A night to remember! Disco balls hanging from the ceiling, fans in face art and over 9,000 people packed into Wells Fargo Arena to rock and roll all night with the iconic rock band KISS.

The group made its first stop in Des Moines since a 2016 concert at the Iowa State Fair to give the KISS Army a final farewell. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of the road for KISS, well, as far as touring goes. 

Crazy Crazy Night 

KISS burst on stage with a fiery entrance. Flames sparked and fluorescent lights flickered as the group came onto the scene with tongue-licking action, playing the band's 1976 hit "Detroit Rock City." The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers then played the song that symbolized what fans came to do that night, "Shout it Out Loud."
