Iron Maiden will play Dublin's Malahide Castle as part of their 50th anniversary tour. The rock band will play Malahide on June 25th next year. The tour marks 50 years since Steve Harris formed the band in late 1975. Tickets go on sale on Friday, September 27th at 12 noon. They're best known for hits such as Fear of the Dark, Run to the Hills and The Trooper.
The tour, which is dubbed ‘Run For Your Lives’, will kick off in Budapest, Hungary on May 27th and will then move across Europe, taking in a further 27 stadium, festival, and arena shows. As part of this extensive tour, there will also be five shows in the UK and Ireland. These shows include arenas in Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow, as well as outdoor shows in Dublin and London. The latter, which will be held at the London Stadium, the home of West Ham Football Club, is a special occasion for the band. The London Stadium, which was constructed in Stratford for the 2012 Olympics and four years later became the new home of West Ham, will be the first time that Iron Maiden have performed on the club’s hallowed turf. Along with their Dublin date, Iron Maiden will also play dates in London, Manchester, and festivals in Norway and France.
The band’s founder, Steve Harris, is a staunch supporter of West Ham, and many of the band members are from the surrounding area, making it a true homecoming show for them. The London Stadium show will be in the largest UK venue the band have ever headlined outside of their festival appearances. This will be a real celebration for the band, a fitting tribute to the 50 years since Steve Harris formed the band in late 1975. The band will be playing a very special set list that spans the nine studio albums from Iron Maiden to Fear Of The Dark, making it a truly unique experience for fans. The show is also set to be the most spectacular and elaborate show ever, with the band promising a once-in-a-lifetime live experience.
The concert is set to take place on Saturday, June 28th, and will be the first time the band has performed at the London Stadium. The concert will see them perform in front of over 60,000 fans, a testament to their enduring popularity.
“My love of football and my support of West Ham is no secret,” Steve Harris told us, “and I know many of our fans around the world have shared that with me too. So we’re all very excited to be playing at the London Stadium as part of the Run For your Lives tour. And of course, it’s not just London, the whole UK tour is going to be a real celebration for all of us. To be able to bring this very special show to all our fans across the UK and Ireland next year is going to be a great way to mark 50 years of Iron Maiden. We can’t wait to see you all there!”
The band’s manager, Rod Smallwood, had this to say: “50 years of Maiden and I have seen 46 of them! With well over 100 million albums sold and almost 2500 shows in 64 countries and counting, to countless millions of fans, we are all still loving every second and consider every tour a new challenge to bring something different and exciting to our fans. And for this very special one we’ re pulling out all the stops! We will cover classics and fan favourites from the first nine albums, from Iron Maiden to FEAR OF THE DARK, many of which we haven’t played in years and many we will likely never play again in the future. We have already been hard at work for months putting together an even more spectacular and elaborate new show which will bring the songs to life more than we have ever been able to do before. This is going to be a huge couple of years for Iron Maiden and Eddie, of course, and we are very excited about what we have up our sleeves for you fans throughout the whole of our 50th year. I promise you are all going to be very happy indeed!”
Iron Maiden have been touring relentlessly for decades, and this tour is no exception. The band will be playing dates across Europe in May, June, and July, and will be culminating their tour in Warsaw, Poland in August. They’re bringing their signature style of heavy metal to the world and will surely leave fans wanting more. Tickets for the tour are on sale next week, so be sure to snag yours early!
