'We aren't done': Creed announces additional shows on North American tour, adding 2 Alberta concerts
Veteran rock band Creed announced new shows for their Summer of '99 Tour in 2025, including two stops in Alberta.
Creed is widely known for their late-90s and early 2000s hits including Higher, With Arms Wide Open and My Sacrifice. They've also won two Grammy awards for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group in 2001 and 2003.
The band released their debut album My Own Prison in 1997 and has sold-out more than 60 concerts throughout North America, selling 800,000 plus tickets in the process.
"Thirty years in, it’s been a blessing to pick up right where we left off with longtime fans and to meet the next generation for the first time," said lead singer Scott Stapp in a Tuesday media release.
"It’s been an incredible ride, and we aren’t done, so here’s to a 'summer' that never ends. We’ll see you on the road."
Rock bands 3 Doors Down, Daughtry, Big Wreck, and Mammoth WVH will rotate as opening acts throughout the 23-city tour.
Fans can get their hands on VIP packages through VIP Nation. A VIP package includes premium tickets, an on-stage viewing opportunity, a pre-show soundcheck party invite and a meet and greet with Creed complete with a photo op.
The Summer of '99 Tour kicks off July 9, 2025 in Lexington, KY and runs until Aug. 20 in Calgary's Scotiabank Saddledome after a stop in Edmonton's Rogers Place on Aug. 19 with Big Wreck and Mammoth WVH serving as opening acts for the Alberta shows.
Presale tickets to those shows will be made available at 10 a.m. Wednesday. General sale goes online Dec. 13 at 10 a.m.
