Ace Frehley, the founding guitarist for KISS, was asked if he was invited to take part in the band’s upcoming “KISS Kruise: Landlocked In Vegas” event in a recent interview with Guitar World magazine, according to Blabbermouth.net. In collaboration with co-producers Pophouse, makers of boutique music holidays Topeka, and music-led destination experience business Vibee, fellow KISS founders Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons are organizing this unique fan experience, which is scheduled to take place at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas from November 14–16, 2025.

They asked me and I declined. There’s no way I’m gonna be involved with that, you know?

This is what Frehley said referring to the fact that none of the band’s former members joined the renowned rock group for their final two performances at Madison Square Garden in New York City in December 2023.

Their biggest mistake is that they should have done that at Madison Square Garden, not in Las Vegas in a 5000-seater, or whatever it is.
