News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

[jmutil]

I don't get why people are surprised. Playing in the US brings crazy espenses (now more than ever) and Maiden doesn't have the Coldplay pull to sell out 40 stadiums per city.

I’m not surprised, also less US shows means more in south america, asia probably which is good for those fans

So do we still expect more European dates or that ship has sailed?

I think there will be a handful of European dates + 10 more for the rest of the world and that will be it.

Hellfest.

South America, Australia and Japan. I would say 15-20 shows, bringing the total up to 55-60 shows.

I have seen some talk of Australia in November and the tour ending in Japan.

Maybe they will announce something after the Knebworth show. Hellfest has always been my type; they're announcing the lineup in December, so we'll have to wait a little. October will focus on Latin America and South America, followed by Oceania and Asia. I expect not more than 6 - 7 dates, open-air shows, or the big indoors in Japan (Saitama Arena). I hope for circa 50 gigs next year, some 80 during the 2025/26 period.

Exactly

Hellfest and the first show(s). Pula has been probably "cancelled" and they're considering other options.

Has anyone come across this list?
I saw it on the Internet, but I have no idea where it comes from or who might have made it, a fan or if it could really be in preparation for release by Maiden.

Probably fake, two shows in Mexico....

Probably fake, two shows in Mexico....

That's the least fake part, since a 2nd show (at the same venue) is probably planned.

But yeah, it's completely fake.

Two stadium shows in Mexico? No way.

 

[PieceofMind89]

Two stadium shows in Mexico? No way.

Second show most likely at Palacio de los Deportes.

When you say "no way", it always happens.
So yeah, it's happening.

Foro Sol again, in that case. Wouldn't make a lot of sense to play that arena on a Saturday.

 

[Prowler666]

Im guessing that the remaining shows will take another 1 month to be released?

The double shows in NA will probably be announced before the general sale starts. It will probably take at least another week to have the rest of SA and maybe they will wait December to announce the first show

What is the source of the theory about Japan?

Why has Pula been "cancelled"?

Why has Pula been "cancelled"?

I'd say aborted during preliminary talks is a better expression.
