Makes sense to announce the earliest shows first, the US dates won't be far off either by the end of the month or early October. But it's 100% happening.

I'm presuming North America late-July to September, Latin America from September to October, Australia and Asia in November?

Or it could be like last year Aus and Asia first, then into NA, finishing the year out with South America. But I guess that will depend if they have booked RIR for September.

The tour artwork strongly hints we'll get something from NPFTD, perhaps even the title track. Look at Eddie's left hand reaching out on the tour artwork and on the NPFTD album cover. Same concept like the album art.
Would make sense since they skipped most of NPFTD ever since. It's time.

I am torn. Do I want to see the same setlist again? But it could be the last time to see the boys.

Nah, last tour poster & 'songs from first 9 albums from iron maiden to fear of the dark' was false advertising. Show was great but I still feel disappointed by this. Either way - great that they are again on road in 2026 and I'm sure that there will be more dates in US. I'm interested if 2027 is 'vacation year' or they have some internal plans not related to touring.

I must admit, I didn’t like the fact they skipped NPFTD. I can see why they did, but it sucks.
I am surprised that they didn’t announce Download festival. Maybe the festival have moved on and the band want to spend their remaining years playing their own shows in the UK. I fully expect this to be the last Maiden tour. One off shows maybe beyond 2027, but I would say this is the last tour.

Unfortunately, I won't fall for that again. I wish it's true because it makes sense.
Btw, the colors of the poster are like a nod to Live At The Rainbow art.
I think they will want to play RIR. Probably without a live stream because of the already mentioned recording of the Paris show. This leg should be until October or November. Europe, SA, NA, Asia, Australia.

Didn't Bruce say he always wanted to play there before?

People are so obsessed with their retirement. Steve does not want a new album, 2026 is their last tour: Therefore the end of Iron Maiden?
A break is something where you continue after. And, indeed, a break from the road. Interesting.
