Iron Maiden have announced a surprise 2027 North American tour, the third and final leg of their 50th-anniversary Run For Your Lives celebration. Revealed on October 16, 2026, the new run adds 16 dates across the United States and Canada to the most ambitious trek of the band's career.
The new leg stretches from April 14 to May 16, 2027, taking Maiden to arenas, amphitheatres and two major festivals. It lands in a busy season for big-room rock, from Bon Jovi's BST Hyde Park 2027 headline show to a fresh wave of veteran comebacks.

Support Acts
Joining Iron Maiden on the road will be Bullet For My Valentine and The Raven Age. The three-band bill is the first all-British lineup the band has taken out since 1983, pairing Maiden with two generations of British heavy music — arena-seasoned metal veterans and the younger generation carrying the torch.
British rock has had a huge year on both sides of the Atlantic, from The Pretty Reckless team up with Dave Grohl on new music to sold-out summer bills across the States.
Tickets
The artist presale began on October 19 at 10am local time. The general on-sale follows on October 23 at 10am local. With the band's 2026 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction fresh in the memory and these being the final anniversary shows in North America, demand is expected to be fierce — so fans should be ready at 10am sharp.
The Final Run For Your Lives Shows
By the time the tour wraps in Ocean City, the Run For Your Lives trek will have played 107 shows in 36 countries for more than 3 million fans — numbers that rank it among the most successful anniversary tours ever staged, in a year when the BTS Arirang tour crosses $500M and set a new benchmark for global touring.
Founder and bassist Steve Harris said the band had originally planned to step away from the road in 2027: "Maiden were planning on taking a break from live performances in 2027, but we've been enjoying this last leg in the USA and Canada so much… we should take the show to parts we missed."
