RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

Prowler said:
I haven't realised they could play 19 hits with a total length of 1h 37mins.

I suppose they won't pick Where Eagles Dare, but 2MTM could be played instead. This could happen. Playing Rime instead of 2 other songs is also possible. I'd still prefer some hits being swapped with deeper cuts. Still Life instead of Die with your boots on is what I want the most.
Also, Revelations probably won't feature, but I hope it does. I know most people want Infinite Dreams, but I'd even swap that for Revelations or Still Life.

What.... i leave 2MTM? Im going to change it right now for where eagles.
 
Iron Maiden announced this tour as (not only) the most spectacular and elaborate in their history, but a really 'big tour'. If so, we may expect more dates in 2026 (if not an additional leg planned for 2027). If they wanna reduce the touring period to two years (2025/26), we should expect more than 50 dates to be announced for the 2026 tour. Short leg in EU (13), USA/CAN (28), S. AM (9), and 6 - 8 dates in Asia/Oceania. I wonder if this might be right?!
 
I was wondering about Where Eagles Dare, the logic behind that being that it would have been brutal for Nicko but definitely back in the running with a new drummer

Where Eagles Dare would be brutal on Bruce at this point :D

Joking aside, it is a very challenging song to sing and was featured prominently in LOTB. I think if they wanted to go down the warplane route they'd go for Aces High instead (and I hope they won't go for either).

True! Although they'd probably have him try Aces High anyway :lol:

I created a Spotify list with these that clocked in at 1h37m - give or take a minute, since I used Sanctuary from Beast Over Hammersmith.

Welcome to the setlist contest if you feel bold!

It's not too early, right?

Right..?

Well I suppose it's ever too early for speculating and guessing the setlist of the Run For Your Lives world tour! With LOTB, a similar thread & contest was opened relatively close to the first date of the tour, but for Future Past tour 2023 we started as early as 6th of October 2022... So let's roll with somewhat similar schedule.

The deadline for the entries will be Sunday 18th of May 2025.
The first show of the tour will take place on 27th of May, so...

I posted a setlist weeks ago. Thanks!
 
For everyone guessing which songs might be retired from the set, remember that every show is someone's first. And there are fans who may be seeing Maiden for the first time or who may have missed certain songs performed on prior tours.

I'm guessing the band takes all of those factors into account when determining the set list, not just appeasing those like me who experienced "The Legacy Of The Beast" tour.

Its true. And thats because The trooper number of the beast and fear of the dark are always played. And many others but usually they give us some surprises. Bruce says that this is the first greatest hits. If he doesnt call reunion tour,give me ed tour and legacy tour greatest hits that means the they are going to play all their classics
 
In every retro tour during reunion era they have surprised us with a song or two that this lineup hasn't played together. FPT it was Alexander, CSIT. LotB tour it was Flight of Icarus. Maiden England it was 7th Son of a 7th Son (and Afraid to shoot strangers?). SBIT it was Rime, Moonchild (Powerslave?). Early Days - too many to count.
So by all logics, they should bring back a song or two from 80's they haven't yet played during this era of the band. Most likely Infinite Dreams and/or Killers.

This is a new line-up, so every song is a new song for them to play. But the Gers/Smith/Murray guitar setup did Killers in 1999.

That's a pretty good point actually. Once they announced the theme of this tour I was a bit disappointed (though relieved that they didn't go the Live After Death/Somewhere Back In Time route for a third time). I mostly prefer the late 80s, 90s and reunion era for Maiden, but I'm sure once the music starts playing and I'm standing with thousands of other fans singing every note I won't be thinking about the setlist.

So, while sitting at home and with the luxury of having seen them a few times already I might be somewhat "disappointed", there will be hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people world wide, who will be absolutely delighted with whatever the setlist ends up being.

True. Always they have any surprise.

In my setlist prediction, I've got BQoBD, Tame and Only the Good Die Young scratching that itch.
 
May 27th cannot get here quick enough. They've planned this tour for a good while and put a lot of hard work into it. I'm really excited to see what they have come up with and what surprises they will have in the set. If they have Killers and Infinite Dreams that alone will be enough to send me over the moon. But whatever they do I have faith it's going to be a great tour.
