Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

It's interesting to see which shows are selling well compared to others.

Harrison in NJ clearly hasn't sold anywhere near what they expected it to, unless something picks up in Hershey that show will be a disaster, and San Antonio there is like 95% seats still left unsold.

If there's "dynamic pricing" should these shows not get cheap tickets now?

It's obvious they favored some bigger stadium shows in fewer markets expecting people to travel, but this isn't Europe the amount of people that actually leave their state for a show is quite minimal.

Outside of LA they really should have just done arenas in more cities.

There is no speculation of another leg, especially with 2027 being announced as a year with no touring, this will be it for NA

To be fair, this is probably Maiden’s first and last chance to step up into the stadium league in America.

For American fans, I hope it pays off as otherwise the band may be more inclined to neglect the US if the can only do arenas there in the future whilst most of the rest of the world allows them to play stadiums. I would say the same logic would apply to Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

In relation to Japan, it seems to be their weakest market these days. Odd, given how it took them so quickly and stuck with them during the 90s more so than some other markets.

Why do you say japan is their weakest market when all their shows are usually sold out.
 
Just got tickets for the 26th in Los Angeles. 463 dollars for two. Bloomin 83 dollars in fees. We aren’t used to this in the uk. Maiden clear;y going for the big bucks. It’s not a big stadium and it’s the only band I’d shell that out for but at the same time it’s pretty disappointing maiden sanctioning those prices. Before anyone says it’s the promoter and Ticketmaster ,maiden know how much tickets are and if I had their money I’d not be comfortable with charging these prices ,but guess I’m part of the problem as I’ve still bought tickets.the bmo isn’t a big stadium. It’s the size of the co op arena in Manchester.
 
According to a source from the FC
"Live nation rumours has it they will add more cities……due to huge demand in the western part of the continent , that was largely forgotten……

8 shows would be added from August 15 to August 28…….Vancouver, Edmonton, Seattle, Denver would be in the card……..and more……"

BMO only has a capacity of around 22k for concerts, so yeah not overly large at all.
In the US we are used to paying service feels that high, TM totally rob us blind in that regard lol.

Considering the size and wealth of Japan, the shows Maiden play there are very small compared to other parts of the world.
It seems they are losing their ageing Japanese fans and not replacing them sufficiently with newer generations.

Arenas are still a pretty hefty rake. I don’t see “only” playing arenas as a barrier to touring. Different story altogether if they could only sell out large theaters or something…

As someone from the west coast I really am excited for this but also am annoyed that both maiden and rush announced east coast dates with no indication of a west coast date coming then announcing the extra dates, just announce the dates all at once.
