Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

Yes and no.
NJ is around 24k tickets per show, the first one is sold out but the 2nd hasn't sold anything (4k tickets at most, if you count the resale tickets).
LA is probably 20k each (less than the previous visit), but it's also the only show on the west coast.

Texas is a big market for Maiden, but definitely not their best, so 20/22k already sold for SA is nothing short of amazing.

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.

Now I'm wondering when they will announce the LATAM leg (for October) and the Rest of the World dates? If they don't announce something until the end of the first week of December, they will do that next year. Probably Iron Maiden will be a headliner of The Good Things Festival series in Australia. If so, the line-up will be revealed next August. The event has taken place in the first week of December since 2018. Honestly, I can't imagine the next arena tour in Oceania, just two years after the last one. IM as the headliner of festival(s) is more probable.

Not sure they will tour into December, if we presume LATAM is scheduled for the rest of October, where do they play to fill in all of November?

I am not sure they will do a typical 7 arena dates in Australia, perhaps 2-3 shows in smaller sized stadiums could be likely.

Generally, it's the stadium tour around the world. Smaller stadiums/outdoors are more likely, especially in Australia. Hope for 7 - 9 dates in Oceania and Asia with a break between the end of October and November. If so, they could book some shows even in the first week of December; if not, the final dates will be booked for the last week of November.

I would say they would hit places like the Brisbane entertainment center. It holds about 30000 from memory.

Not that I know of but its world tour for their 50th. They have said there are more dates to come so the odds are they will come here. Also at the Brisbane show last year Bruce said we will be back very soon, sooooo. I'd keep you calendar free for November/December next year.

Yeah, Bruce told that - I remember. So, my fingers are crossed!
 
GUNS 'N ROSES just announced 2026 tour dates, including many shows in Brazil in April. I think IM will announce Brazil in May 2026; maybe the other LATAM countries will be announced sooner.
 
They really missed the timing to announce the dates here in South America and Brazil. First it was AC/DC, now Guns. If they announce now, it will definitely take a long time to sell.

Should have really beat the competition and announced them the same time as the NA dates, there was no real reason not too.

you don't know that. none of us can know that. Only the people handling the business side of Maiden know what happened, what the plan was and if something went wrong.

It is challenging putting in South America, Asia, Australia all into the final leg after already touring from May till October. Do we think Maiden are actually going to visit all these territories in October / November?

There have been some credible sources that they will have dates in Japan and Australia next year.

They surely knew about the other bands' concert plans for LATAM (first half of next year), so they didn't announce the dates and delayed the LATAM leg announcement, probably for early Spring next year. I suppose they'll announce Asia and Australia next year, too.
 
The problem (if there is one) could be the Santiago's location. Fans are disappointed in the adjacent park to the stadium, and in 2022 they've skipped Chile altogether just because the stadium wasn't available.

But it could also be that everything is going accordingly to plan. AC/DC shows are sold out, Guns is doing an insane amount of shows in Brazil only, and Maiden will most definitely outsell them anyway.
