Dates include landmark shows in The UK and Ireland
Iron Maiden will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2025 with the Run for Your Lives World Tour. The two-year trek kicks off on May 27th in Budapest followed by 27 stadium, festival, and arena shows around Europe. Maiden fans are promised a special set list with their most spectacular and elaborate show ever.
Tickets go on sale from Friday, September 27th at noon via Ticketmaster. As always there will be an exclusive pre-sale for Iron Maiden Fan Club members & Trooper VIP packages will be available at all UK and Ireland 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,” frontman Bruce Dickinson shares. “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 includes five shows in the UK and Ireland, with arenas in Birmingham, Manchester, and Glasgow, and outdoor shows in Dublin and London, celebrating its milestone anniversary with one of the most notable concerts in the band’s history.
On Saturday, June 28th the band will perform at the London Stadium, home of West Ham Football Club. It’s the team that band founder Steve Harris has supported throughout his life, and with whom Iron Maiden has a long and storied history.
This concert in front of over 60,000 fans at the London Stadium, which was constructed in Stratford for the 2012 Olympics and four years later became the new home of West Ham, will be the first time that the iconic metal band has performed on the club’s hallowed turf. A true homecoming show – with Steve Harris, Dave Murray, Adrian Smith & Nicko McBrain all born in the surrounding area – it will also be the biggest UK venue the band has ever headlined outside of their festival appearances.
“My love of football and my support of West Ham is no secret, and I know many of our fans around the world have shared that with me too,” Harris says. “So we’re all very excited to be playing at the London Stadium as part of the Run for Your Lives Tour. And of course, it’s not just London – the whole UK tour is going to be a real celebration for all of us. To be able to bring this very special show to all our fans across the UK and Ireland next year is going to be a great way to mark 50 years of Iron Maiden. We can’t wait to see you all there!”
Special guests for the London and Dublin outdoor shows will be American rockers Halestorm. British metal band, The Raven Age, will open all five shows.
