Iron Maiden has launched the ‘Run For Your Lives World Tour’ in celebration of the band’s 50th anniversary.
The ‘Number of the Beast’ heavy metal titans, created by Steve Harris in late 1975, will tour Europe in 2025 and 2026 for 27 gigs to commemorate the milestone.
The band has promised fans a special set selection covering nine studio albums from 1980’s Iron Maiden to 1992’s Fear of the Dark.
The band’s greatest tracks from this period were ‘Run to the Hills’, ‘The Trooper’, ‘Can I Play With Madness’, and ‘Bring Your Daughter… to the Slaughter’.
Frontman Bruce Dickinson stated, “Next year is a really special year for Iron Maiden, and we’re going to give our fans a once-in-a-lifetime live experience.

“If you haven’t seen us before, what the heck are you waiting for? This is your chance to discover out what you’ve been missing! “Iron Maiden will definitely get you!”
The tour will begin on May 27 in Budapest next year, and will include five gigs in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Steve continued, “My passion of football and support for West Ham is no secret, and I know many of our fans around the world have shared that with me as well.

“And, of course, it’s not just London; the entire UK tour will be a huge celebration for all of us.
“Bringing this very special show to all of our fans in the UK and Ireland next year will be a fantastic way to celebrate Iron Maiden’s 50th anniversary.” We can’t wait to see everyone there!”
