The Alive/Worldwide Tour was a 1996-1997 concert tour by Kiss. It was the first tour with original members Peter Criss and Ace Frehley since their 1979 Dynasty Tour. The tour grossed $143.7 million, making it the most successful tour by Kiss to date.

Some notable shows included: the August 8 show in Cincinnati, Ohio, where a fan threw his fake leg on stage, which all the members signed and handed back to him; the January 22 show in Osaka, Japan where Gene Simmons lost his voice and Paul Stanley had to sing most of his songs; and the April 5 show in Columbus, Georgia where due to health reasons, Peter Criss could not perform and — the group deciding to not cancel the show since the doors were already open — Criss's drum tech Eddie Kanon took the stage in the Criss cat makeup.
