IRON MAIDEN will kick off their “Run For Your Lives” world tour on May 27, 2025, in Budapest, Hungary, followed by 27 additional shows across Europe in stadiums, festivals, and arenas. This tour commemorates 50 years since Steve Harris founded the band in late 1975. To mark this milestone, MAIDEN fans can expect a unique setlist featuring songs from all nine studio albums, ranging from “Iron Maiden” to “Fear Of The Dark,” along with the most elaborate show the band has ever produced.

Tour dates will be announced soon, with tickets going on sale next week. As usual, there will be an exclusive pre-sale for IRON MAIDEN fan club members, and Trooper VIP packages will be available at all U.K. and Ireland shows.

Lead singer Bruce Dickinson remarked, “Next year is a special year for IRON MAIDEN, and we’re ready to offer our fans a once-in-a-lifetime live experience. This tour will put a smile on your face and a cheer in your throat. If you’ve seen us before, prepare for an upgraded experience. If you haven’t, now’s your chance to discover what you’ve been missing! IRON MAIDEN is sure to impress!”

The tour will feature five shows in the U.K. and Ireland, including indoor concerts in Birmingham, Manchester, and Glasgow, as well as outdoor performances in Dublin and London. MAIDEN will celebrate their 50th anniversary with one of the most significant concerts in their history.

On Saturday, June 28, they will perform at the London Stadium, home to West Ham Football Club, which has long been supported by band founder Steve Harris. This show will be particularly special as it will be the first time IRON MAIDEN plays at this venue, built for the 2012 Olympics and later the home of West Ham. The concert, expected to attract over 60,000 fans, will also be the largest U.K. venue the band has headlined outside of festivals.

Steve Harris expressed, “My passion for football and support for West Ham is well-known, and many of our fans share this connection. We’re thrilled to play at the London Stadium during the ‘Run For Your Lives’ tour. The entire U.K. tour will be a celebration, and we’re excited to bring this special show to our fans across the U.K. and Ireland next year, marking 50 years of IRON MAIDEN. We can’t wait to see everyone there!”

American rock band HALESTORM will be special guests at the London and Dublin outdoor shows, while British metal band THE RAVEN AGE will open all five U.K. and Ireland performances.

MAIDEN manager Rod Smallwood added, “Celebrating 50 years of MAIDEN, I’ve experienced 46 of them! With over 100 million albums sold and nearly 2,500 shows in 64 countries, we still cherish every moment and see each tour as an opportunity to offer something new and exciting. For this special tour, we’re pulling out all the stops!

“We’ll include classic hits and fan favorites from our first nine albums, from ‘Iron Maiden’ to ‘Fear Of The Dark,’ many of which we haven’t performed in years and may not play again. We’ve been diligently working on a more spectacular and elaborate show that will bring these songs to life like never before. The next couple of years will be monumental for IRON MAIDEN and Eddie, and we’re excited for what we have planned for our fans during our 50th anniversary. I promise you’ll be very pleased!”
