Rock band Creed has emerged out of the wilderness for their first tour in 11 years, the Summer of ‘99 Tour, which will include a stop at Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas on Wednesday, September 11, 2024.

The tour will travel to 40 cities across the United States over the course of two months, starting in Green Bay, Wisconsin on July 17. In addition to Dallas, they will play in San Antonio on September 13 and The Woodlands on September 14.

The band has been on hiatus since 2013 but their profile has been raised significantly - at least in the Dallas-Fort Worth area - because their 1999 hit song "Higher" has become an anthem for the Texas Rangers on their way to their first World Series appearance in 12 years.

Creed will be joined by special guests 3 Doors Down and Finger Eleven at all three Texas dates.

The band, which formed in Tallahassee, Florida, in 1994, has not announced plans for any new music at this time. They've only released four albums in their career, but their peak came with their sophomore album, 1999's Human Clay, which yielded hits like “Higher” and “With Arms Wide Open.”

The band recently launched a new webstore that will cater to fans old and new, including new merch designs as well as the opportunity to purchase entry into Mark Tremonti’s guitar clinic.

Tickets for the tour will be available starting with presales on Tuesday, October 31, with the general on sale starting on Friday, November 3 at 10 am at creed.com.

Fans can also purchase VIP Packages, which may include premium tickets, stand on stage to watch the first three songs, Meet & Greet + photo op with members of of the band, access to the pre-show soundcheck, exclusive merch, and more.

Turn Cancer Upside Down

Scott Hamilton will emcee the ice show.

Scott Hamilton, the 1984 Olympic gold medal-winning figure skater known for his signature backflip, is coming to Dallas-Fort Worth for a holiday ice show and "Frozen 5K" fundraising mega-event.

The fundraiser portion ties into Hamilton's public battle with testicular cancer in the 1990s, which led him to found the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation in 2014. The nonprofit's mission is to fund innovative, patient-centered, targeted treatments that fight cancer while preserving quality of life.

One of its fundraising events is the Sk8 to Elimin8 Cancer ice shows, which bring Hamilton and other world-class athletes to rinks around the country.

NYTEX Sports Centre in North Richland Hills is hosting a holiday version on Saturday, December 20 at 7 pm, where Hamilton will emcee and Olympians Mariah Bell, Ashley Cain, and Polina Edmunds will perform.

Tickets range from $32.75 to $79, with proceeds benefiting UT Southwestern Medical Center in addition to the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation.

"This isn’t just an ice show - it’s a celebration of hope, resilience, and community," the city of North Richland Hills says in a Facebook post. "Expect breathtaking performances, holiday cheer, and the chance to see world-class athletes light up the ice, all while supporting a cause that will touch so many."

If you'd like to get out on the ice yourself, you can register for the Frozen 5K on December 21 and skate 35 laps to honor and remember those impacted by cancer. The $35 registration fee includes a T-shirt, or you can donate extra to receive other Sk8 to Elimin8 Cancer swag.

DFW-only fundraising incentives include an autographed program ($500), a VIP meet-and-greet plus autographed program ($1,000), or the chance to perform at the holiday ice show (top fundraisers only — see more info here). Better start stretching.

It's the perfect time for Hamilton to bring his ice show to North Texas. Ice rinks are a huge holiday trend for 2025, with kids of all ages gliding and spinning on special pop-up rinks from Grapevine to Garland to the all-new CultureMap City Rink in downtown Dallas.
