“I wanted to let you all know that I will sadly be unable to perform this weekend on Friday May 23 at Brat Fest in Madison, Wisconsin, or Saturday May 24 at the Arcada Theater in St. Charles, Illinois.”
Ace Frehley

NOT ON THE ROADAce Frehley has pulled out of his weekend shows after falling ill according to a statement from the former KISS guitarist.

Frehley was slated to appear at the annual ‘Brat-Fest‘ in Madison Wisconsin on Friday May 23rd, along with the ‘Arcada Theater‘ in St. Charles Illinois on Saturday May 24th.

The Wisconsin date has been cancelled and it appears the other show in Illinois has been postponed.

The ‘Arcada Theater‘ issued the following: “The Ace Frehley show scheduled for Saturday, May 24, has been postponed. All tickets already purchased will be honored when Ace returns to the Arcada. In the meantime, we continue to ROCK ON!”

Frehley has been riding the wave of his most recent record “10,000 Volts” which was released in early 2024 and spawned a solid rock hit with the single of the same name.

As of press time it appears that the ‘Brat-Fest‘ have already announced Winger as their replacement for the Friday night, May 23rd in Madison.

The full statement from the Ace Frehley camp has been shared below.


Hello Everyone,

I wanted to let you all know that I will sadly be unable to perform this weekend on Friday May 23 at Brat Fest in Madison, Wisconsin, or Saturday May 24 at the Arcada Theater in St. Charles, Illinois.

Although not serious, I am ill and don’t feel that I am capable of the rigorous travel or performing up to my usual standards this weekend.

I extend my deepest regrets and most sincere apologies for having to cancel. I thank you all for your understanding in the matter.

All love to my fans, ACE
