News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

Maybe they won't do album tour and then farewell tour, vibe doesn't seem that way. I'm starting to believe that when they come back in 2028, their album tour would be their farewell tour. It's very unmaiden way to do it, but it seems to be that way.

I think going out on an album tour could be viewed as a very Maiden way to go out. Playing new songs, being creative, the challenge that Steve often talks about, end as they began.

The language is all there to prepare us for this being the last tour. But it also leaves things open. So maybe the year off in 2027 is time for unsure members to rest and decide if they want to come back. Maybe they will, maybe they won't.

Either way, I'm glad I'll be seeing them in Lima in October, a bucket list part of the world to see Maiden. One last time for the sweet souvenir. Maybe.

Promoter is TEG DAINTY, they have a cool video advert for the Maiden 2026 tour already on Facebook but it doesn't seem to include the exact tour dates! Mad.

Why? The way I see it, this is the confirmation Maiden will tour in 2028. If it just was a way to boost tickets sales they wouldn't specify they year (as they were doing before).

Also, let's face it: the 2028 tour is probably already in the making, especially if it's the last one.

Why do you think that? I would say it's the opposite, namely confirmation that they will continue in 2028.
I was just about to write that now we know that.

A whole year off at their age is a very long time. Also, the "at least until 2028" makes it sound like the break might be even longer!

I don't want them to end up like Priest or The Who. Trundling on with an ever diminishing line-up of original members until all we have left is Bruce, Steve and a bunch of hired guns.

If Knebworth is the last time I see them I can live with that.

That its true. Steve and bruce and the rest of the band new at their nearly 70s is absurd. But i think they can do a couple of tours more.

If, God forbid, something happens, then these will be their final shows ever.
But there is no point in naming a year. They might act like they don't know what will happen but in reality they're probably confirming dates already

Tony Moore in support. Absolutely love it, our Steve is doin right by his homies in their latter days, wee holiday for the lads

Steve seems to be good friends with Tony Moore these days, he has taken him out as support for multiple British Lion tours, now Eddfest and this little jolly. He seems like a decent bloke! His act is... unusual.

That's just advertising jargon to make people feel like they have to buy, because otherwise there might not be another opportunity for a very, very long time.
