News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

Está ficando cada vez mais óbvio que o Iron Maiden nunca conseguiu realmente conquistar o mercado americano. Eu até pensei que eles arriscariam mais desta vez e tentariam tocar em estádios de beisebol ou futebol americano, especialmente considerando o sucesso de bandas como System of a Down, AC/DC e Metallica — mas, honestamente, ainda bem que não fizeram isso. Teria sido bem constrangedor.

E o mercado de rock americano está indo muito bem. Basta ver a turnê de reunião do Rush, o show do Bon Jovi no Madison Square Garden, ou até mesmo o Ghost e o Volbeat, que alcançaram números expressivos. Então, claramente, há algo a ver com o Iron Maiden e sua conexão com o público americano. Já vi pessoas reclamando que não há datas suficientes, mas mesmo com as já anunciadas, muitas estão com dificuldade para vender ingressos.

Se houver outra turnê no futuro, acho que eles deveriam pular os EUA completamente ou fazer apenas três ou quatro shows selecionados.
 
My original wanted date was Charlotte and when I joined the Ticketmaster general presale yesterday, there were about 6000+ estimated to be in front of me. It was slim pickings by the time I got in, and it seems pit sold out most likely during the fan presale.

I was very surprised that the Hershey date was an immediate log in with code, and was able to grab two pit tickets for $240 or so each. Not cheap by any means, but I was anticipating up to $300 given the current state of concert costs: my seats for AC/DC this year above the floor were $250, so pit for slightly less than that was a treat.

Two nights of Metallica (also right above floor, but I won Snake Pit for one of the nights which was one of the coolest experiences of my concert going career) was about $350, which I thought was a fair price all things considered.

I remember reading that the Pantera tour a few months back was about 70% or more empty at Hersheypark, genuinely wonder if that location is just not ideal for the locals or if it’s something else.

Anyways for Maiden- thankfully being in Orlando I have easy access to one of the major airports- only going to cost about $80-100 RT to get up there. Can’t wait.

Hershey is going to need a major boost to even half sell that one.

Boston, Charlotte, Chicago and LA are the shows that look like will completely sell out by weeks end so perhaps Maiden have to simply pick their markets better.

Obviously there’s a slight bias here, but skipping over Florida is perplexing to me. Tampa, Miami, Orlando- any of those dates would sell out quickly.

For such a major occasion, it’s surprising this tour isn’t covering more locations in general and only lasts a month. IIRC, Legacy was two months for NA so this feels small.

I’m out of the loop. Are these actually going to be the only US dates for this go around? Or is there speculation for another leg?

It's obvious they favored some bigger stadium shows in fewer markets expecting people to travel, but this isn't Europe the amount of people that actually leave their state for a show is quite minimal.

Outside of LA they really should have just done arenas in more cities.

There is no speculation of another leg, especially with 2027 being announced as a year with no touring, this will be it for NA

I think it's likely that if it's not the last one in North America, they will greatly reduce the shows there and prioritize Europe and SA.
 
Fan Club forum has rightfully been livid about the whole situation. Curious to see what Phantom/Maiden end up saying about the whole thing. Also curious to see what gets thrown up ticketwise tomorrow for venues like Charlotte

It's interesting to see which shows are selling well compared to others.

Harrison in NJ clearly hasn't sold anywhere near what they expected it to, unless something picks up in Hershey that show will be a disaster, and San Antonio there is like 95% seats still left unsold.

Harrison is good if you don't count the fact it's a saturday, they're playing with Megadeth and Anthrax and a 2nd show was planned.

San Antonio is a huge stadium, so it's perfectly normal to have that much left. The only real disaster is Hershey. It's untouched. Now that one could get cancelled or moved.

If there's "dynamic pricing" should these shows not get cheap tickets now?

To be fair, this is probably Maiden’s first and last chance to step up into the stadium league in America.

For American fans, I hope it pays off as otherwise the band may be more inclined to neglect the US if the can only do arenas there in the future whilst most of the rest of the world allows them to play stadiums. I would say the same logic would apply to Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

In relation to Japan, it seems to be their weakest market these days. Odd, given how it took them so quickly and stuck with them during the 90s more so than some other markets.

Why do you say japan is their weakest market when all their shows are usually sold out.
