Big hair, blazing guitars, and wall-to-wall hits—IKONS of Rock is a time machine straight to rock’s most iconic eras. This new show is made of total nostalgia, talented performers, and a feeling of going back in time for an epic night out.

IKONS of Rock delivers a full-scale concert experience that goes far beyond a typical tribute show. Made up of elite professional musicians, the group brings the sound, style, and spectacle of late ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s arena rock roaring back to life with uncanny musical and visual precision. Each performance blends powerhouse vocals, jaw-dropping costumes, and immersive production, complete with dynamic lighting, video, and special effects, creating a high-energy show built to captivate from the first chord to the final applause.

IKONS Of Rock Is Like Listening To The Soundtrack Of Your Wildest Rock Memories

With a rotating cast of male and female vocalists embodying legendary rock icons, IKONS of Rock moves seamlessly from artist to artist, keeping the set fast-paced, theatrical, and unpredictable. Each performer sings a few songs and then it’s on to the next, keeping the energy high and the excitement going strong.

Performers in the show have a reputation that has earned them spots sharing stages with some of the biggest names in rock history, and are often featured at major festivals. Constantly evolving setlists, arena-level production, and a touring operation built for the big leagues make IKONS of Rock a must-see spectacle for fans craving the full glory of classic rock—loud, authentic, and larger than life.

Some performers that grace the stage during the show include Ozzy Osbourne, Joan Jett, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Journey, Pat Benatar, Alice Cooper, Heart, and more. No two shows are the same, meaning you can return over and over and see a new performance each time.

How The Show Came To Be What It Is Today

Darren Moore, the creative force behind IKONS of Rock, brings decades of professional experience as a vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist, and producer to the stage. A multi-instrumentalist since his early teens, Moore’s career spans music, film, television, and live performance, giving him a rare ability to blend musicianship with theatrical storytelling.

Beyond the studio, Moore’s background in professional acting adds depth and authenticity to his onstage presence, helping shape IKONS of Rock into a fully immersive concert experience rather than a standard tribute act. A former member of the iconic Canadian rock band Harlequin, inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, he has also shared stages with numerous major artists, solidifying his reputation as a seasoned performer and visionary creator in the world of classic rock entertainment.

When asked how the idea for this show came to be, Moore shared some insight.

“It came by accident. We were playing up north and recording with recording artists. And on our time off, we decided we would all get together and just play the songs that were kind of the soundtrack to our lives, the stuff that we were still into,” he told The 702 Vegas. “And we had a resident, a couple of different clubs that would bring us in whenever we were available. We could call them a week before and we would have the room to ourselves for the weekend and they would sell tickets and they would pay us and treat us like rock stars.”

One day, Moore showed up with Kiss makeup on. He got on stage with the makeup and the rest of the band showed up dressed as different characters. They just kept it going after that.

The Show Features Multiple Artists Each Night

This is a show you can see more than once and it feels like the first time each time.

“We have up to 50 different artists that we can portray with the singers that we currently have. We can’t obviously do them all in one night. Typically, in a 90-minute show, we’ll give them anywhere from eight to 10 minutes per artist, so you’re doing eight to maximum 11 artists in one show,” Moore told The 702. “We would like to cover them all, but the biggest ones that people want to see in every show for now is Ozzy Osbourne and Heart. Those are kind of the showstoppers. Then we’ll rotate the other artists around.”

Moore said that they are talking about adding a matinee show in March so they can “lean into a little bit of a different genre.”

“It’ll still be branded under the IKONS of Rock brand, but we’ll call it something else and it will be leaning more towards Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, and Cher,” he said. “A little lighter for the afternoon.”

‘Everything Has To Be A Little Bit Next Level’

Brent Fitz, drummer and rhythm backbone, further explained that IKONS of Rock having a homebase in Las Vegas means a bigger show than one on the road.

“Everything has to be a little bit next level. We have a lot of these things in Vegas that we can do that aren’t as easily done when you’re touring, like the video is incredible in the show,” Fitz shared.

“We spend so much time with attention to detail. So our show has so many of these other great technical things that can be added to create something really special.”

IKONS Of Rock Appeals To All Ages

This is a show that the whole family can go to together and enjoy regardless of age. It’s not an unusual sight to see a young child rocking out to all the classics at IKONS of Rock.

“It’s really neat, because I was watching some of the kids in the show recently, and it’s a pretty special thing because we loved and saw KISS as young kids, too,” Fitz said. “We loved all those bands and now parents come and bring their kids to see and celebrate.”

The 702 Vegas recently caught an IKONS of Rock show.

The space at Hard Rock Cafe is comfortable, trendy, and perfect for this show. There isn’t a bad seat in the house. No matter where you’re seated, you have the perfect view of all the action.

Being a Jersey girl originally, the Bon Jovi set really gave me some nostalgic feels. I saw them in concert multiple times as a teen and this just brought those great memories to the surface. Another iconic moment for me personally was the Heart set. That was my first concert ever and the vocalist looked and sounded the part perfectly.

No matter what rock music you loved growing up and continued to love, this show brings those good feeling memories front and center. IKONS of Rock is a fun night out on the Las Vegas Strip and something you can do over and over.
