News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

But why would Maiden tour Europe 2 consecutive years with the same setlist? I remember that lot of people believed Maiden would tour Europe (or Balkan countries) in August in 2024 before heading to Australia, but that never happened. I have a similar feeling now. People hypeing themselves into something that's not logical.

I can't remember any solid rumours back then, it was just hope. This time it seems to be solid rumours.
 
Personally I don't care if they'll tour Europe next year. All I want is that this tour ends in 2026. If they play in the Balkan region or UK or something in 2026 is a bonus for me. If they play some European festivals, I won't bother.
 
Fiddling about on Google search trying to access Pollstar, got into their Live 75 chart it says in the past 30 days Maiden averaged 30,853. Dated August 1st. 12 concerts reported, gross average $3.657 million. 100% tickets sold.

Maiden played 15 concerts July, Belfort won't be included as festival.

But put together with earlier reporting suggests European IM headline shows that excluding festivals averaging 30000.

Warsaw August 2 imagine close to 60000.

Good work from Maiden.

If that happens and there´s a Q&A section I´ll pay if someone asks hey Bruno what´s the name of the 8th Iron Maiden studio album? And including three tips: 1. Released in October 1990 (well actually he´s so bad at remembering correct years so maybe just these following two) 2. Janick´s first album 3. Includes the bands only number one single and your first ever solo song which then became a Maiden song

They'll start in Lubljana.

Anthens, Stambul, Sofia, Belgrad, Hannover, Copenhell, Tons of Rock, Sweden Rock and maybe 2-3 more stadiums in DE and in the UK.

No, they will not start in Ljubljana. We don't have venue big enough, +25.000. They will probably play at Zagreb Arena, capacity 23.000

Eh, they opened the tour there two years ago. And Maiden like to open in a smaller venue. It could happen again.

I just talked to my friend who also organizes concerts in Slovenia and Croatia, and now I already know who could be organizer, same one as in 2023. If they play at the end of may in Ljubljana maybe they could also play in july in Zagreb or maybe in Split at Poljud stadium, they played there in 2008.
