I'm talking about Italy, of course. But do you know the picture where the crowd for One Direction and Iron Maiden where compared, with the former having such a small crowd? It went viral something like 10 years ago and it's still around. Well, it was taken at San Siro. Hopefully we won't see something similar, although Maiden should deserve it :)

Iron Maiden Italia said the San Siro is over 30k now. I know it's not impressive for the venue, but I hope for 35 - 37 in the end.

If that's true, they should cancel the show.

I don't know about cancelling, although I'm not sure how they would be able to please everyone who bought tickets in different sections.
There is a new arena in Milan with a reported capacity of 20k, they could go there.

Where do you know the figures from?

From the FC, there is a thread by a person who has been tracking numbers for quite a few tours now and generally is accurate enough.
For what it's worth these are the European estimates.

Groupama Stadium and Hannover sales are much bigger now. Just look at the map with tickets for the German show, sales are not impressive at all.

Definitely less than 20k, otherwise they wouldn't be so desperate.
This one could be the first show cancelled due to poor sales in what, 15 years?

I said about the whole tour, almost 50 dates with festivals, and (what we can observe) now the sales are way worse than the management expected, I reckon. A few weeks ago, you said sales in Romania are way bigger than they were last time.
 
I was reading some of the Rant section on The Iron Maiden Commentary the other night. One of the rants talked about the "over inflated ticket prices." It was from 1998. So price complaints ain't nothin new, it seems. Still, I don't recall bein pissed at prices until the last 5 or 8yrs but mayhap I'm misremembering my life.

For like 4 shows out of 50. How dreadful.


Which is still true, but considering their record attendance is 14,799 it doesn't mean sales are good for a stadium show.

Could you tell me something about sales in Lyon and Mexico City? Looking at the maps the current results didn't look so impressive.
 
It’s interesting to note that most people have already forgotten that this is the same tour that, just six months ago, practically sold out all shows in Europe, playing several stadiums with over 50,000 people and ranking as one of the most profitable tours of the year among all artists.

Doesn't mean much, if you plan a show and it's not selling you can come up with all excuses you want, but still somebody is earning a lot less money than expected.
