Iron Maiden have announced a new 2025 tour titled ‘Run For Your Lives’, with dates across Europe and the UK.
Marking 50 years since bassist Steve Harris formed Iron Maiden, the “Run For Your Lives” tour kicks off at Budapest Arena on Tuesday 27th May, and takes in 27 further stadium, festival and arena shows across Europe.
The tour includes five shows in the UK and Ireland in June 2025, with Iron Maiden playing indoor concerts at Birmingham Utilita Arena (Sat 21st), Manchester Co-Op Live (Sun 22nd) and Glasgow OVO Hydro (Mon 30th). The other two dates are outdoor shows at Dublin Malahide Castle (Wed 25th) and London Stadium (Sat 28th) – home of Steve Harris’ beloved West Ham United.
Special guests for the London and Dublin concerts will be Halestorm, while The Raven Age open all five shows.
The band’s long time manager Rod Smallwood, who has overseen the band through 46 of their 50 years, said of the ‘Run For Your Lives’ tour in a press statement: “We will cover classics and fan favourites 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. 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!”
General tickets for UK and Ireland dates go on sale from Friday September 27 12pm BST via LiveNation. Pre-sale tickets go live on September 23 via the Iron Maiden fanclub site.
