Originally scheduled for Thursday, July 16, 2026, this show was postponed until Saturday, September 5, 2026, due to the air quality of the wildfire and smoke.

Official Statement:

CREED’s performance tonight in Shakopee, MN has been postponed due to unsafe air conditions resulting from the ongoing Canadian wildfires. Scott, Mark, Brian and Flip were incredibly excited to perform for the sold-out crowd but given the environmental conditions and the challenges they create for the band, crew, venue, staff and attendees, the decision has been made to move the performance. The show will now take place on Saturday, September 5th. Tickets for tonight’s performance will be valid on the new date. Refund information will be at point of purchase; supporting acts will be confirmed at a later date. We appreciate everyone’s understanding and look forward to seeing all the fans soon.

The special 93X Half-Assed Morning Show Summer Bash with headliner Creed, will take place ~~July 16, 2026~~ September 5, 2026, at the Mystic Lake Amphitheater, in Shakopee.

CREED

We saw Creed in Nov 2024 and wrote, “Celebrating now thirty years as a band, Florida rockers Creed are truly living a second life, having reuniting again after being apart for the previous decade doing solo projects, and still managing to fill arenas even without a new record to support. The band’s hit song “Higher” even helped propel NBC reality singing show “The Voice” contestant Huntley to a win, on the previous season. The headlining set began with one of their heaviest songs, 2001’s “Bullets” and the pyro was on full display right away on the song’s choruses, though safely located in plumes behind the band. There were three riser platforms along the front of the stage for singer Scott Stapp, guitarist Mark Tremonti, and bassist Brian Marshall, while drummer Scott Phillips mostly kept intently focused to his beats atop the back drum platform.”

Bush and Tim Montana to open.
