News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

[Nomadd]

Actually the bigger question now is would they even do japan and oceania?

If not, I doubt the announcement of Asian dates at all.

A fan based vote for a different song or 2 in the Knebworth setlist would be a good choice. Might be too radical though so won`t hold my breath.

That contest is not official, it comes from a fanpage.

yes they will, they confirmed it.

Could you remind us when it was?

There are further countries to be announced for the Run For Your Lives World Tour in the new year!

So, unless they do an exclusive run of shows in India skipping the most logic markets, Japan and Oceania will be there.

Yeah, I remember Bruce mentioned something about being back to Australia and Japan "very soon". Yeah, they might announce two or three shows in India, and after a 17-year break, the demand should be OK.

I was literally joking about doing a run in India. Considering the rumors indicate Japan will be the last country, if they're true there is no way they're going to India this year.

Where can i read it? I dont see anything new more than the shows added in sao paulo

I’m “looking forward” to 2027, because that way some people whose only goal in life is to keep bothering others will finally have some free time. What will they do then, the poor things?

What do you mean?! There will be plenty of opportunities in 2027 to argue about the eventual Paris 2026 Live release!

But it doesnt say anything about asia?

Not specifically, but when they have announced Europe, NA, South/Latin America where else will the further dates be ? It's pretty obvious all that is left is Oceania and Asia
In a few weeks we will likely see the rest of the dates, then it will say that's all folks.

 

[Helmuth Von Moltke]

Because they don't need to. Smaller bands must do more shows to cover the expenses, Maiden is okay with a couple.
Also, definitely not their biggest market, so no point in doing a more extensive asian tour.

Markets grow if you give them attention as well.

Could they mean second dates to shows already announced?

Could be the case for a newcomer band, not for a band with its members in their 60/70

Also, there is no room for 2nd shows anywhere (just for the third night in Sao Paulo but it's safe to say it won't happen now)

The average age in Maiden when they played India in 2008 was barely 50, 51. It was only three years later they were in Jakarta. From that point on, they then never gave these markets any attention at all, not even occasionally. My comment was more about why reunion era Maiden didn't bother with wider parts of Asia, rather than doing it now (that ship has sailed).

Record sales for central america. Thank God, now they must have enough faith to announce the remaining shows happening 9.500 miles away from there.
