WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah, Jan. 29, 2024 (Gephardt Daily) — Rock icons Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper announced Monday they will continue their Freaks on Parade tour this summer and will include a stop in West Valley City.

Produced by Live Nation, the 21-city run begins on Aug. 20 in New Mexico, and makes its second stop in Utah, at the First Utah Credit Union Amphitheatre (formerly the USANA Amphitheatre). The Utah stop is on Thursday, Aug. 22.

Presale tickets go on sale through various agencies, including City and Artists, on Thursday of this week. General admission sales open at 10 a.m. Friday, Feb. 2, through livenation.com.

Zombie, 59, (born Robert Bartleh Cummings) has sold more than 15 million albums worldwide and is also known as the filmmaker behind “The Lords of Salem” (2012), “Halloween” (2007), “The Devil’s Rejects” (2005), “House of 1000 Corpses” (2003), and “The Munsters” (2022), among other projects.

Cooper, 75, (born Vincent Damon Furnier) has a career spanning nearly six decades. His pioneering macabre music concerts have historically drawn on horror movies, vaudeville and garage rock, and featured electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood and boa constrictors.

His hits have included “I’m 18,” “Poison,” and the song that put him on the map, “School’s Out.”
