Bruce Dickinson has promised Iron Maiden will deliver a "setlist for the ages" when they head out on their 'Run For Your Lives World Tour'.
Bruce Dickinson has promised Iron Maiden's next shows will be epic
The band will hit the road throughout 2025 and 2026 with a massive show to celebrate their 50th anniversary and frontman Bruce has now told fans they can expect something very special because they are "pushing the boat out" to make the concerts totally spectacular.
In a video post on Instagram, Bruce explained: "We are pushing the boat out with this tour. Not that I need to tell anybody because basically the tour has sold out already.
"So for those of you who have bought tickets – which is, like, all of you – it’s gonna be really, really cool. I’m really looking forward to it. We’re going to be doing stuff we’ve never, ever done before, and it’ll be a setlist for the ages.
"So I’ll see you there. And it’s not gonna stop in 2025. It’s gonna roll into 2026, because there’s parts of the world that we need to get to that we can’t get to in 2025. So there you go."
The 'Number of the Beast' heavy metal legends - who were formed by Steve Harris in late 1975 - will deliver a special set list spanning the nine studio albums between 1980's 'Iron Maiden' and 1992's 'Fear of the Dark' which includes classic tracks like 'Run to the Hills', 'The Trooper', 'Can I Play With Madness' and 'Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter'.
Bruce previously said of the shows: "Next year is a very special one for Iron Maiden and we’re going to be giving our fans a once-in-a-lifetime live experience.
"This is a tour that’s gonna put a smile on your face and a cheer in your throat. If you’ve seen us before, then get ready to take that experience to a whole new level. "If you’ve never seen us before, then what the hell have you been waiting for? Now’s your chance to find out what you’ve been missing! Iron Maiden’s definitely gonna get ya!”
The tour will kick off on May 27 next year in Budapest, while the run includes five shows in the UK and Ireland.
On June 21 and 22, the band heads to Birmingham and Manchester for a pair of arena shows, before a night at Dublin's Malahide Castle on June 25. On June 28, Iron Maiden head to London Stadium, before ending the UK and Ireland stint two nights later at Glasgow's OVO Hydro arena.
