Creed is bringing its holiday-season concert tradition to the Las Vegas Strip, with two Creedmas shows scheduled at BleauLive Theater inside Fontainebleau Las Vegas on December 11 and 12. Both performances are set to begin at 8 p.m., and general tickets go on sale to the public this Friday at 10 a.m. through the resort's website.
The two-night engagement was reported via a release, according to FOX5 Vegas. Pre-sale ticket windows will be available throughout the week leading up to Friday's general on-sale date, the outlet reports. The shows will take place inside BleauLive Theater, a three-level, 90,000-square-foot venue with a maximum capacity of roughly 3,800 guests that was purpose-built to handle both large-scale productions and more intimate concert setups, according to Fontainebleau Las Vegas, which notes the space includes a 100-foot fly loft and dedicated freight docks built for touring gear.
A Holiday Tradition Rooted in a Record-Breaking Year
Creed launched the Creedmas concert brand in 2024 and expanded it in December 2025 with a run of year-end arena and casino performances across Florida, Oklahoma, Maryland, and Connecticut that featured support acts including Sevendust and Hinder, per Consequence. The holiday series follows the band's 2024 “Summer of '99” reunion tour, its first major run of shows after an 11-year hiatus, which sold more than 865,000 tickets across 70 dates and marked the group's highest-grossing calendar year, according to an official Creed statement posted to Facebook. Concert promoters described the tour's reception as one of the most successful rock returns in recent history, per that same statement.
Frontman Scott Stapp already has a connection to the Fontainebleau brand. He performed a solo concert under the BleauLive banner at Fontainebleau Miami Beach in October 2021, playing hits from both his solo catalog and Creed's discography, according to Fontainebleau Miami Beach's listing on TIXR.
Why a Two-Night Run Instead of a Residency
Fontainebleau's booking approach for BleauLive Theater deliberately steers away from the kind of extended, 20- to 30-date residencies that have become common on the Las Vegas Strip. Instead, the venue favors short weekend takeovers from arena-level acts, a strategy the Las Vegas Review-Journal's Neon has reported venue executives designed to fit touring schedules rather than lock artists into long-term engagements. That approach places Creed's Fontainebleau stop alongside other recent BleauLive bookings, including Trevor Noah's November engagement and Marc Anthony's planned 2026 residency.
The venue sits inside Fontainebleau Las Vegas, a 67-story, $3.7 billion resort that officially opened in December 2023 after an 18-year development saga marked by bankruptcies and multiple changes in ownership, according to The Nevada Independent. Developer Jeffrey Soffer originally broke ground on the project in 2007 before reacquiring the property in 2021, the outlet reports.
Decades of Hits Still Drawing Streams
Creed's commercial footprint remains sizable more than 25 years after its breakout. The band has sold over 53 million albums worldwide and more than 28 million in the United States, a total driven largely by 1999's Human Clay, which achieved RIAA Diamond certification after surpassing 11 million U.S. sales, according to Craft Recordings. The band's 2000 single With Arms Wide Open won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rock Song and remains Creed's only number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
That staying power shows up in streaming numbers, too. Creed's 2004 Greatest Hits compilation reached 200 total weeks on the Billboard 200 chart in July, fueled by consistent streaming activity averaging more than 10,000 album-equivalent units per week, according to Forbes, which notes no other Creed release has spent as many weeks on the chart. Guitarist Mark Tremonti said in November 2025 that he and Stapp plan to begin writing new Creed material together in mid-2026, which would mark the band's first new album project since 2009's Full Circle, according to Consequence. Whether that writing process bears any connection to December's Creedmas shows, or whether additional support acts will be announced for the Fontainebleau dates, remains to be seen.
