Take The KISStory Tour

In 1975, KISS was an outrageous band from New York City on the cusp of superstardom when they took Cadillac by storm. How this event came together is one of the most unlikely stories in rock & roll history!

Experience the Cadillac KISStory Tour, a 2.5 mile walking tour of the Cadillac KISStorical sites that have become famous since the band’s visit to Cadillac. There are four stops around Cadillac where fans can retrace the steps the band took from way back in 1975. Each commemorative marker features classic photos and an explanation of why the spot is significant in the story. Watch Jim Neff, the 1975 assistant football coach, telling about some of the highlights that go along with each stop in the links below. In 2015, the first and only ever KISS monument was unveiled as a part of this tour and fans from all over the world visit it each year. Join us in 2025 as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of this legendary event with an enhanced KISStory tour and other special activities!
