Live Nation Merchandise Announces New Deals

Live Nation Merchandise has announced several new deals for its artists, including two major new deals for KISS. KISS has signed deals with Monster Mini Golf for a glow-in-the-dark KISS-branded mini-golf course across from the Hard Rock Hotel, at the Shoppes at Harmon Square, in Las Vegas, and with Rubie’s Costume Co. for costumes, masks, wigs, and accessories for adults and children.

The custom-designed, frightfully fun mini golf course will feature animated KISS and monster props lurking in all 18 fairways. A live DJ will rock the raucous house with continuous KISS music, trivia, contests, and prizes. A gift shop will offer unique KISS and Monster souvenirs. And for party monsters, one-of-a-kind KISS themed event rooms will host KISS and monster-themed parties, events and wedding celebrations.

“At Monster Mini Golf presents KISS, rockers and golfers of all ages can enjoy a screamingly good time at affordable family-friendly prices,” explains Christina Vitagliano, Monster Mini Golf Founder. “There’s nothing like this venue anywhere else in Las Vegas or the world. So, it’s beyond cool. It’s KISS!” says Christina Vitagliano, Monster Mini Golf Founder.

The band itself is over the moon about the deal with Rubie’s. ”With your new KISS costumes, you will release the Demon within you. You are the God of Thunder!” says Gene Simmons.

But those aren’t the only deals for KISS: Live Nation has also signed the band up for a deal with Jumpin Jammerz for adult/kids/baby footed pajamas. Other recent Live Nation deals include:
