"As Cancun's premier entertainment destination resort, The Palace Resorts team continually strives to offer top-tier talent and unmatched experiences at our signature property Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort," said Gibran Chapur, Executive Vice President of Palace Resorts. "After an exciting year that included the completion of a 100 million dollar enhancement project and hosting a variety of premier programming ranging from family entertainment spectacle Broadway on Ice to Grammy-winner Michael Bolton, we believe the first entertainment line-up for 2015 coupled with our already stellar offerings is a testament to our commitment of surpassing the expectations of our valued guests and redefining the notion of what an all-inclusive resort can and should offer."

Below is an overview of entertainment acts confirmed to perform at Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort in 2015:

Moon guests will be delighted by the sounds of legendary super group, Kansas, in concert on February 13 and 14, 2015. Celebrating the band's 40th anniversary in 2013, the band Kansas has produced eight gold albums, three sextuple-platinum albums, a platinum live album and the iconic hit "Dust in the Wind." The band continues to tour and remain a fixture of Classic Rock radio.

Palace Resorts proudly presents a one night only concert from REO Speedwagon performing live at Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort on March 21, 2015. Over the course of their illustrious career, REO Speedwagon has sold more than 40 million records and charted thirteen Top 40 hits. Formed in 1967, signed in 1971, and fronted by iconic vocalist Kevin Cronin since 1972, REO Speedwagon is responsible for massive hit singles such as "Keep On Loving You" and "Take It On the Run." REO Speedwagon's career will always carry on with music that continues to define excellence in song craftsmanship and brilliant live performance for several generations of fans.

Last, but certainly not least, Moon Palace guests will be treated to a truly unforgettable performance by Creedence Clearwater Revisited on April 24 and 25, 2015. Stu Cook and Doug "Cosmo" may not have intended it, but their band Creedence Clearwater Revisited has taken on a startling life of its own. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame rhythm section (bass and drums respectively) from the legendary group Creedence Clearwater Revival launched the Creedence Clearwater Revisited project in 1995 to once again perform live Creedence Clearwater Revival hits which have become touchstones of a generation.

Attendees of all three concerts will enjoy a pre-show dinner at 7:00 p.m. before the performances kick off at 9:00 p.m. Each performance will take place at the Moon Palace Arena, a 140,000 square foot convention center which opened in 2014. Since opening earlier this year, Moon Palace Arena has hosted performances by the Grammy-winning rock band, Chicago, the 2014 inaugural event for Tianguis Turistico, the third annual Wine & Food Festival Cancun-Riviera Maya's Tasting Village and other impactful events. Fully equipped with the latest technology and the latest audio visual equipment, Moon Palace Arena will be transformed into an intimate visual ice-skating spectacle for the entire family as the backdrop for the residency of Broadway on Ice – A Special Holiday Celebration from December 22nd, 2014 through January 4th, 2015. Furthermore, Moon Palace Arena will set the stage for the fourth annual Cancun-Riviera Maya Wine and Food Festival's Gourmet Tasting Village from March 12 – 15, 2015.

The AAA Four Diamond Award, Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort is located on Cancun's tranquil south shore, nestled between 123 acres of tropical foliage and secluded white sand beach. Comprised of three luxurious sections – Moon Grand, Sunrise and Nizuc – Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort recently completed a 100 million dollar enhancement project which included renovations and upgrades to guest rooms, lobbies, the gymnasium, refreshed meeting spaces, restaurant upgrades and more.
