    Iron Maiden Announce 'Run For Your Lives' World Tour: ‘We’ll Likely Never Play These Songs Again’

    Iron Maiden has announced the ‘Run For Your Lives’ world tour.

    Iron Maiden will kick off their tour on May 27 next year in Budapest, Hungary, followed by 27 shows across Europe in stadiums, festivals, and arenas. This tour celebrates 50 years since the band’s formation in 1975, and they plan to set a special setlist featuring songs from all nine studio albums, from ‘Iron Maiden’ to ‘Fear Of The Dark.’

    “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 said of the shows. “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 be a special one for both fans and the band since they don’t plan to play the same songs again in the future. “We will cover classics and fan favorites from the first nine albums, from ‘Iron Maiden’ to ‘Fear Of The Dark,’ many of which we haven’t played in years and many we will likely never play again in the future,” the band’s manager Rod Smallwood said. “We have already been hard at work for months putting together an even more spectacular and elaborate new show which will bring the songs to life more than we have ever been able to do before.”

    “This is going to be a huge couple of years for Iron Maiden, and Eddie of course, and we are very excited about what we have up our sleeves for you fans throughout the whole of our 50th year. I promise you are all going to be very happy indeed,” he added.

    The tour includes five shows in the U.K. and Ireland, with stops in Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow, and outdoor shows in Dublin and London.

    On June 28, they will perform at the London Stadium, home of West Ham Football Club. This club is meaningful for Harris, as he has supported it for years and has a long history with it.
