Cricket could mean India. Boomerang Oz, All Blacks NZ, anything for Japan? Megadeth are playing Oz November according to Vic Rattlehead social post, what could that mean!
Direct flights between Santiago and Auckland, 12 hours flying time, lot further to Tokyo or Brisbane. Suggests tour could continue from NZ, make it's way to Japan. Fingers xx announcement soon!
Record attendance for a concert at Allianz stadium Sydney is 41000 by Travis Scott. Almost 25000 saw Future Past in Sydney.
In Melbourne Marvel holds 53000 for concerts, Lepps Crue did 33000. AAMI stadium is 30000 capacity, more appropriate? Again almost 25000 saw FP.
Leppard Crue sold 19000...
Until we know otherwise rest of world dates will be announced soonish. Rod will have seen sales projections for Europe and North America when the press release was issued at the end of last year.
In 2026 Maiden likely to headline to around 2 million people, sure profit made on that.
See Foo Fighters have confirmed Australia, New Zealand stadium tour November and January. Would this impact the casuals?
If Maiden tour with Megadeth in Aus/NZ would this be small stadiums? If playing India, Japan, 1 other Asian country, say 10 dates total, would that mean 4 small stadiums in...
Rest of world concerts won't start until November, almost 9 months away, no reason to panic! Tour may not finish until December. Yes, as someone who lives in Thailand, would rather have an announcement now, but May or June is OK.
Think touch of sarcasm regarding Maiden in Czech Republic.
2025 great success overall. Maybe 2026 doesn't reach those heights, some concerts not selling great, but still likely to shift a serious amount of tickets.
Announce rest of world please and be done with it!
In Asia they could do Jakarta, Singapore, Delhi. Singapore keen on subsidies for bands to appear. India lot of bands now playing there. Bangkok, where I live, not sure big enough market to sell out 12000 arena.
Run for your lives essentially a greatest hits tour? According to Spotify the top 8 most popular Maiden songs have streams of between 145 million and 582 million, all 8 are on the RFYL setlist. Number 9 is Wasting Love at 123 million streams, or 94 million streams more than Alexander. Youtube...
Fingers xx RoW dates confirmed soon, would not be good news for Asian fans if no concerts. Late January, still 9+ months to any concerts in that area.
As I live in Bangkok hope 1 date works for me somewhere.
I am not holding my breath for Thailand, fingers xx a Friday through Sunday show in Perth, Singapore, KL, Jakarta or Manila, can fly in and out easily.
Scorpions and Leppard doing separate Indian tours this year, good chance Maiden play India.
Over the past 15 years Maiden's ticket sales in North America have improved they are now an established arena band, play some stadiuns.
In Europe they can headline stadiums. Ticket prices and visiting same markets may mean 2026 not as good as 2025 but that was arguably their best year in terms...
See The Trooper, according to Deadline, was used on the last episode of Stranger Things. Fingers crossed has a viral moment and pushes ticket sales.
Fingers xx RoW announcement in next couple of weeks.
Spoke with some Maiden loving friends, none seem excited about documentary. Maiden's history well documented. Hope it gets wide exposure and boosts ticket sales, especially Knebworth.
Fingers xx Rest of the World dates announced in January.
