Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

You clearly have no idea how ticket sales operate. I got my ticket on the day of the show, and where I was sat in the nosebleeds, there were plenty of empty seats.

The show attracted less than 69,500.
If that was a sell out, it was the lowest sell out crowd in the venues history!
But let me guess, you think Maidens’s stage show is so much bigger than all other stadium acts and they couldn’t fit more in?

You sound like a fanboy who thinks your fave band is bigger than everyone else.

It's always funny to see completely ignorant people claiming they know better without any proof.

The show was sold out, as the official report says. It has sold out "officialy" (which is when the initial amount of tickets released has been sold) on October 7th, 2024 on Ticketmaster (there were some GA tickets left on the stadium's site, which basically nobody has used, but those were gone on October 9th, but those don't count anyway)
The show was a complete success, since the stadium has a capacity going from 60k to 75k depending on the stage production.

Nobody said anything about Maiden being the biggest act in the world. I'm just stating facts here, while you cry around reading what you want and showing nothing but ignorance.
Like, even if you don't have access to Pollstar (which I'M SURE you don't even know what that is), just take a quick look around the web: how 70k people would the lowest sell out crowd when most public boxscores are at around 60/63k?

I swear, some people on this thread like to talk about tickets sales without even knowing what they're talking about, without having seeing a single boxscore, without having followed a single sales.

Maiden had around 73k when you count complimentary tickets.

A close friend to Andy Copping said there were more than 5k, so probably the real number was more in the 75k region. It was the show with more comps since Cardiff 2017 (which is why the boxscore for that show is so low)

There were indeed a good number of tickets available on the day of the show.

Production tickets. Nothing new under the sun. Even Coldplay and Taylor Swift have production tickets released close to show day.
But you don't see their fans going around screaming "I knew it! It wasn't sold out! Such a low turnout!"

In 99,9% of the shows production tickets released prior to show day ends up being unsold.
They don't even show up in the boxscores (unless it's Sweden), because those tickets were booked already.

Are you saying the boxscore figure stating the show was sold out includes several thousand tickets that were production holds and were not even sold?
 
Who cares about some shows from the past? More interesting is the future of the band than an additional production holding tix.

I don't know about several thousands, since there were only 404 seats unsold on June 21st. Anyway, production tickets are not taken in account for official boxscores, whether they're sold or not. There are some promoters/countries which release the full numbers on their own (always happen with Ullevi, for example), but they're always higher than the regular boxscores since those include comps and everything.
