Does no one have any inside information about what might be behind this, or even why the European shows originally planned for 2027 (I think) were instead moved to before the Rest of the World Tour of 2026?

It's just an opinion, and looking at the seating map, my point of view is reasonable, nothing more.
Megadeth and AC/DC just announced big LATAM tours a few weeks ago, and the people spent an amount of their money on expensive tickets. The band and the organizers need some time to restore the demand and fans' savings to buy a lot of tix once again. I believe they will announce LATAM dates in 2026, most probably in February or March.

No shows were planned for 2027. They just saw how succesful the first leg was and decided to do a small comeback for the money in 2026.
There is nothing weird about the lack of announcements, it's not even december. Last time Brazil was announced in December and Argentina was announced in April.

Then you don't know how the 2022 and the 2024 maps looked like.
They've sold more than 31k tickets, almost half of the capacity, in less than a month. How that could be a disappointement?

More than 31K? So, it's way better than I thought. THX!

Why do you know that 100 %? A lot of fans believed there would be a third European leg in 2027. The sales would have been as good or better then.

No I think they have planned this for a while. The announcement said Run For Your Lives World Tour 25-26 from day one. I did think it was suspicious they announced it like that, and with 2027 off it makes sense.

RFYL was going to end in 2026, so 100% there were no RFYL shows planned in 2027
True, I wouldn't be surprised if RFYL ends in December 2026. In a recent interview, Bruce said they will be touring most of next year. So, from the end of May to the beginning of December means 7 months, and probably more than 55 shows - the big tour as they announced.

The only doubt i have is if they are going to play in athens alexander the great. I didnt know that they skipped athens during FP tour. They said many times that they will play that song and when they play it they dont go to athens? I think will be the same setlist but...

Sadly, yes. Not the biggest fan of Alexander here, but the fact they're sticking to the same old formula this time it's really beyond comprension.

Rather not, some attractions, games, special souvenirs, merchandise, competitions, and wins. They should release something special (vinyl/CD), which would be added to every ticket/person who will attend the show.

Such teaser would be appropriate for new music... ehhhhh.
Something extra for the big Knebworth show. More bands (doubt), fun bonus stuff for fans, merch? A special artwork for the show would be nice. On this map we can spot pyramids and a tank- just hints for fun?
edit: Maiden themed park would be fun.

Wasn't it already known that something like “Iron Maiden theme worlds” will be built there?

Looks like an Iron Maiden theme park for the weekend.

LA sales have definitely been boosted being the only city in the West Coast, both shows are pretty much sold out, 40k sales is still impressive.
