A way too big, more likely they again play Zagreb and Belgrade arenas as in 2022.

I hope it will be Zagreb but I wouldn't be surprised if it's gonna be Slovenia again. But it could also be just a random date and not the start of the tour.

Well of course you can't find it, what do you expect from Rod?
I also have the link to the post, in case you find a time machine:

That's maximum capacity. It can be arranged for fewer people. At the end of August there will be a concert by a local musician, 20,000 people are expected. This is plan for that concert for local musician from Ljubljana. I would expect Maiden can sell +15.000 tickets for Ljubljana concert. Maybe Maiden can play in Ljubljana at start of June, than in Split in the midle of July.

Yeah, because they didn't sell 10k tickets in under four days last time

10k isn't 40k
The other point about being able to set it up for smaller audiences is a good point though.

10k isn't 40k, but if 10k tickets are sold in less than 4 days then they can surely sell 20k at least.10k isn't 40k

More info on the documentary:
"How does Iron Maiden contact Radio Nube?After uploading the video of their thrilling performance of Iron Maiden's song 'The Trooper,' the band "Radio Nube" experienced an exciting surprise: they were mentioned on the official Iron Maiden account on what was then known as Twitter.
This mention not only impressed the members of the band but also filled them with excitement as they were recognized by one of the most iconic rock bands.
Shortly after, they received a direct message on Instagram from the team responsible for making the commemorative documentary for Iron Maiden's 50th anniversary.
In the message, they expressed their excitement about discovering this family band from Sonora and highlighted that they considered them worthy representatives of youthful energy and talent in their musical material.
The invitation to participate in the documentary was received with great joy and honor by "Radio Nube." This significant event is scheduled for the year 2025, when they will have the opportunity to perform and be an integral part of the celebration marking five decades of Iron Maiden's musical legacy.
[...]
Now, the iconic band is preparing to celebrate their 50th anniversary with a series of special events and a highly anticipated commemorative documentary.
This project aims not only to honor their musical legacy and cultural impact but also to provide their followers with a unique and in-depth look into five decades of history in the rock and heavy metal scene.
Iron Maiden is set to leave an indelible mark in 2025, a year that promises to be historic for rock enthusiasts and for all those who have been inspired by the powerful music and unwavering determination of this legendary band."

Something special are imo - the documentary and the 50th anniv tour. I'd love it, but I doubt there will be more stuff like re-issues, unreleased live/video stuff, but who knows.
I don't think they've decided that yet, but I think the Hits tour won't be 3 years this time. Considering their usual habits, they should release a new album in 2026 or otherwise it will be a cabaret act...
Around 40 shows for both Maiden and Bruce (for Bruce I assume more). He will tour in the US, SA, Europe again (I guess) and maybe Asia/Australia.
Maiden's tour next year will be in Europe only. And in 2026 - SA, US, Europe (some festivals I guess) and probably Asia/Australia.
Fitting idea, but I think special will be to play more deep cuts. And ofc the stage set to be epic.
Well, if that's the case, it would be disappointing, but since Paul will be involved, I doubt it. I mean, the band members are mandatory for a 50 years documentary of their career. I really hope there will be some live bonuses, they will make it perfect.
That would be odd, Bruce and Steve hinted at such a tour (imo) and they don't have many ideas left for a History/Hits tours to do (since they don't want to do for the 90's). They can celebrate the Reunion era/albums, but the 50th anniv is the perfect (and logical) excuse.
Agreed.
I also think they will bring back more props and maybe use the screens again, but I really doubt about the direct references to the classic stage sets. I think they will come up with something brand new, spectacular and memorable, like for LOTB. That's Maiden's thing.
True. 5-6 spots for the usual classic, 3-4 deep cuts and the rest (5 or more spots) other old and newer songs.
I expect at least 2 songs from SSOASS and maybe 2 songs from Powerslave. Curious if they'll bring back both Run To The Hills and Hallowed, or one of them plus Number, or none of them. Difficult songs for Nicko now.

Series of special events??? Hmm...
''In-depth look'' documentary means that all members and people who have been part of Maiden's journey will be involved, right. It should be a long documentary then.
Everything sounds so exciting about Maiden for next year. Especially the last sentence or the one from the article in the previous pages. They need to release a new album soon (in 2026) to be perfect.
And finally something reliable, thaks for sharing, so 2025 should be a really great for Maiden.Sonorenses serán parte de documental de Iron Maiden

The source is not as reliable as others since the site just gathered the news from other sites, but if this is true my hopes are high.
I wouldn't be surprised to see an old style documentary like Flight 666 being released in some unknown streaming site though.

I can see what you mean and you made a fair point about many things, like the stage set topic (which I can certainly be wrong about), but the bolded section caught my eye...
Like, yeah, maybe? But... before the "hints" started dropping in 2022, did anyone seriously think that they'd give such an extensive spotlight for Somewhere in Time on their next tour? Or before Legacy of the Beast tour (title) rumours started appearing in 2017, I don't think such tour, let alone the show & setlist structure they rolled with was guessed by too many fans here.
My point being: We don't really know how many ideas and/or potential setlist & show concepts and structures they still have in their mind. A discography-spanning "50th anniversary" set in the vein of LOTB, Give Me 'Ed or Ed-Huntour is certainly a strong possibility and fair enough when & if Bruce, Steve and co. have strongly hinted towards it, but even so, it can still mean a lot of different things depending on how we interpret it, let alone how the pre-production and planning will eventually roll out early next year or so.
The reason why I've been thinking about them referencing and including songs and elements from certain albums and stage shows in particular is the sheer impossibility of creating a balanced coverage of their whole history as a band for a 15-16 song setlist. In basically every scenario, some eras, most notably the 90's, are most likely being neglected (and I can totally see why, as much as I love many of those songs) and some albums/eras (666/Powerslave/Seventh Son?) will certainly have a stronger presence than the others. I just think a more selective career-retrospective makes more sense. And the reason I think they might go for more of an album/era specific route rather than themes is that... well, LOTB kind of did it already. Might happen again, of course!
Obviously, I have absolutely no idea and I might be terribly wrong and I admit that some of the most recent... ehm, rumours, reliable or not, do suggest a lot direct 50th Anniversary scope than I thought there would be. I just thought it'd be rather un-Maideny, but then again, it's not like we've had Iron Maiden 50th Anniversary before, so I suppose it's bit of an Tabula rasa anyway, even if you know how Maiden usually operates (or has operated).
Probably they will share docum series on some streaming platforms. I wouldn't expect physical release of this one, but who knows BRay would be nice. Docum + some live shots from all career.

Why do you keep writing "anni"? That's Italian and Maiden is from England.
