Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

The problem (if there is one) could be the Santiago's location. Fans are disappointed in the adjacent park to the stadium, and in 2022 they've skipped Chile altogether just because the stadium wasn't available.

But it could also be that everything is going accordingly to plan. AC/DC shows are sold out, Guns is doing an insane amount of shows in Brazil only, and Maiden will most definitely outsell them anyway.

In 2009, Iron Maiden played in Chile at Club Hippico, - 65k people in attendance; they could easily do the same, even at the same outdoor venue.
 
Its ridiculous man, maiden should just announce already their dates. Its difficult for people to plan their trips especially if they are not from that particular country or region if they announce the tour closer to the actual dates.

There is always a reason the most of us will never know or understand. But I have always trusted maiden that its good reason.

I checked Wikipedia

Coldplay and Madonna have had higher attendances on the same visit in 2022 and 2008 than Maiden in 2024. Plus some artists from Puerto Rico and Colombia.

Man, those ones are pop/dance acts not even hard rock.
 
Nomadd said:
Completely different audiences in terms of scale and popularity. We can compare IM attendances with those of other hard rock/metal acts, but not with pop megastars like Coldplay or Ed Sheeran. It's obvious.

Fair enough, although the original question was about international acts.

If we focus on rock, can we compare them to the attendances achieved by local rock bands like Los Prisioneros and Los Bunkers?

If we focus on international rock bands, can we compare them to Metallica or System of a Down?

Maiden and Metallica are definitely neck and neck in ticket sales, Maiden sold more tickets than Metallica last year alone. SOAD will always sell out in seconds since they rarely play shows

Yeah it's all over for Maiden. If they can't sell as many tickets as Taylor Swift then what even is the point? Rod clearly doesn't understand the touring business.

Maybe not quite, but Maiden has closed the ticket sale gap with Metallica really well, I guess in most places except USA. Some markets Maiden may be neck and neck or even better.

Total turnaround from the late 90s when Metallica towered over Maiden’s ticket sales.
