Reunited rock band Creed comes to Montage Mountain in Scranton with Daughtry on July 19
From a press release:
Due to fan demand, it was announced today that multi-platinum rock band Creed has extended their sold-out Summer of ’99 Tour with 23 additional dates in 2025.
Produced by Live Nation, the next run begins on July 9 at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky and wraps on Aug. 20 at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, with support from 3 Doors Down, Daughtry, Mammoth WVH, and Big Wreck. It comes to The Pavilion at Montage Mountain (1000 Montage Mountain Rd., Scranton) on Wednesday, July 16 at 7 p.m. with Daughtry and MammothWVH.
When it kicked off earlier this year, The Summer of ’99 Tour quickly became “one of the most anticipated tours of the summer” (USA Today) and “one of the hottest rock tickets of the year” (Billboard) for a return that “may be something this industry has never seen” (Pollstar). To date, Creed’s Scott Stapp, Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall, and Scott Phillips have performed over 60 sold-out concerts throughout North America, selling over 800,000 tickets and breaking venue records in multiple markets.
“30 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. 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,” Stapp stated.
An artist ticket pre-sale starts Wednesday, Dec. 11 at 10 a.m.; pre-sale registration is now open. Tickets go on sale to the general public this Friday, Dec. 13 at 10 a.m. via livenation.com.
Fans can also purchase VIP packages, which may include premium tickets, an on-stage viewing opportunity, a meet and greet and photo op with Creed, access to the pre-show soundcheck party with members of the band, an exclusive merch pack, and more via vipnation.com.

Creed will close out 2024 with shows in Las Vegas, Nevada (Dec. 30 and Dec. 31), and their newly announced dates in 2025 will follow their already sold-out Summer of ’99 and Beyond cruise sailing April 9 through April 13 from Miami to Nassau with Sevendust, Hoobastank, Lit, Hinder, Fuel, and more. Also in April, the band – whose audience has included fans of mainstream, rock, and country for over 25 years – will perform at Stagecoach, an annual country music festival held in Indio, California in the Coachella Valley.
The Grammy and American Music Award-winning post-grunge band formed in Tallahassee, Florida in 1994. The more than one billion streams between “Higher,” “My Sacrifice,” “One Last Breath,” “With Arms Wide Open,” and “My Own Prison” on Spotify alone is a testament to their enduring power. Nearly 30 years since their inception, the ubiquitous anthems composed by singer Scott Stapp and guitarist Mark Tremonti, performed for millions of fans around the world together with drummer Scott Phillips and bassist Brian Marshall, are part of modern and alternative rock’s DNA.
“My Own Prison” (1997) is one of the late 20th century’s biggest debuts. “Human Clay” (1999) and “Weathered” (2001) both entered the Billboard 200 chart at No. 1. “Full Circle” (2009), released after a hiatus, bowed at No. 1 on the Top Rock, Hard Rock, and Alternative charts and No. 2 on the Billboard 200.
With more than 53 million albums sold worldwide, Creed stands alongside iconic bands like Van Halen, Guns N’ Roses, and Metallica as one of an elite few hard rock outfits to earn RIAA diamond-certified status for more than 11 million sales of “Human Clay” in the United States. After an 11-year hiatus, the group officially reunited in July of 2023 and announced that they would be headlining two different Summer of ’99 cruise festivals in April of 2024, which resulted in immediate sell-outs. They embarked on a tour of over 60 dates across North America in 2024 that resulted in countless record-breaking performances and has propelled them into the mainstream consciousness once again.
