With over a million tickets already sold, and most shows sold out, fans are advised that additional tickets will be made available closer to the show, and on the day, with the release of venue and production holds.

Celebrating 50 Years of IRON MAIDEN

The RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR marks 50 years since Steve Harris formed the band in late 1975. Maiden fans are promised a very special set list spanning the nine studio albums from Iron Maiden to Fear Of The Dark, with their most spectacular and elaborate show ever!

Phone-Free Concert Experience

In an effort to enhance the concert experience, IRON MAIDEN is encouraging fans to refrain from excessive phone use during the shows. Manager Rod Smallwood explains the band's desire for fans to be fully engaged and present at the moment without the distraction of phones or tablets.

50th Anniversary Celebrations

The RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR is part of IRON MAIDEN's 50th Anniversary celebrations, which also include fan 'meet-up' events and special offerings like Eddie's Official Pop-up Dive Bar. Additionally, a feature-length documentary film and an official hardback book commemorating 50 years of IRON MAIDEN are set to be released later this year. More details on these releases will follow.

Remaining Tour Dates

For fans looking to catch IRON MAIDEN live, the tour extends across various cities in Europe, with support acts including Halestorm, The Raven Age, and Avatar. Tickets for the remaining shows are available on ironmaiden.com.
