Ticketmaster verified fan registration open now  here, general on sale starts december 10 th  at 10am local.

IRON MAIDEN will return to North America in 2022 to bring The Legacy Of The Beast World Tour to yet more cities, many of which the band has not performed in for many years. The show has already been seen by almost two million people across the globe, being hailed by fans and media alike as the most extravagant and visually spectacular performance of the band’s career to date, with a decades-spanning set list of fan favourites. The 2022 tour produced by Live Nation will also include some songs from their new studio album  Senjutsu  being played live for the first time. 

Very Special Guests on the 2022 dates will be   Trivium on all dates between El Paso and Spokane, and then Within Temptation on all dates from Sioux Falls to Tampa.

The full list of North American Dates are listed below.

Registration for first access to tickets is open now  HERE  via Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan platform and will run through 10:00PM ET on December 5 th . Verified Fan presale begins Wednesday, December 8 th  at 10am local. As always there will be an exclusive pre-sale for IRON MAIDEN fan club members beginning Tuesday, December 7 th  at 10am local. All presales end Thursday, December 9 th  at 10pm local.

Any remaining tickets will go on sale on December 10 th  at 10am local time.

Iron Maiden manager Rod Smallwood comments,

“Next summer we will finally get to play the huge European stadium tour for The Legacy of the Beast, and the new show will be even more spectacular so after our visit to Rock in Rio early September 2022 we decided to take it back to our fans in North America too, but in cities or venues we didn’t play in 2019, including some we haven’t visited in many years like El Paso, Spokane, Sioux Falls, Columbus, Hamilton, Ottawa and Greensboro. 

We’ll be making a couple of additions and changes to the production and setlist to include some songs from our new album Senjutsu and are making the 2022 version of Legacy of the Beast even more spectacular than the acclaimed original show. You can be sure that we will still be featuring all the “hits” and the key elements of the original tour like the Spitfire, Icarus, Hell, flamethrowers and pyro and the rest – but we will shake it up a bit and Trooper Eddie will have serious competition in the new Senjutsu ‘world’ we are adding.”

Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson adds,

“We’re really looking forward to our return to North America so we can bring The Legacy Of The Beast show to places we didn’t get to in 2019 and to other cities we’ve not played for many years. I’m really excited about the new additions  and changes to the stage production and we can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve got planned. The whole band has really enjoyed the Legacy Tour and now we just can’t wait get back out on the road to play live, have fun and see everyone again! ” 

The Legacy of the Beast Tour production and set list is inspired by Maiden’s award-winning free to play mobile game of the same name which is available on iOS and Android platforms at  www.ironmaiden.com/play

A Trooper VIP Hospitality upgrade package is currently being planned and details will be announced closer to the tour dates for any fans who might want to enjoy additional at-show benefits.

Reviews From N. American Media About The Legacy Of The Beast Show Include:                                                

“Iron Maiden brings ginormous on-stage surprises and rocks through its hits at a sold-out Banc of California stadium” –  Orange County Register, Los Angeles, USA

“…epic stage props and visuals, endless costume changes for Bruce Dickinson, hit after hit, and never a dull moment…and the theatrics are all matched by an absurdly professional level of musicianship” –  Brooklyn Vegan website, USA

“…  one of the best shows I’ve seen from Iron Maiden in the last twenty years!  ” –  Illinois Entertainer, Chicago, USA

“…  a highly theatrical, action-packed and dramatic two-hour show ” –  Toronto Sun, Canada

“…  a terrifically entertaining, time-warping two-hour set of fan favorites and rarities….a tour de force of musicianship”  –  Sun Sentinel, Florida, USA

“ Legacy Of The Beast Tour Is The Pinnacle Of Heavy-Metal Escapism ” –  Rollingstone.com, New York, USA

“Iron Maiden will always put on a spectacle of a show. That said, their Legacy Of The Beast Tour handily puts every other tour they’ve embarked on behind it in terms of production and execution.” -Loudwire website, USA

Iron Maiden Announce 2024 ‘Future Past’ North American Tour

By Charisma Madarang

Charisma Madarang

Iron Maiden is following a phenomenal performance at Power Trip earlier this month with a 2024 North American leg of its Future Past tour.

“We’re really excited to be bringing THE FUTURE PAST TOUR back to Canada and the United States next year. We know from the reaction of our fans at Power Trip and the shows we played in Canada recently that they really enjoyed hearing new songs from both Senjutsu and Somewhere In Time, and we’ve really enjoyed playing them!” said Bassist Steve Harris.

The trek has featured fan favorites alongside songs from the group’s 2021 studio album Senjutsu , which Rolling Stone praised as “one of the most rewarding and vital albums in Maiden’s catalog,” and 1986’s Somewhere In Time . According to a press release, Iron Maiden has played to over 750,000 fans at more than 30 sold-out shows across Europe in the summer of 2023.

Iron Maiden Revamps Set for 2023 Opening Night: Video and Photos

Iron Maiden kicked off their Future Past tour on Sunday at Ljubljana, Slovenia's Arena Stozice.

You can see the full set list, photos and videos from the performance below.

The British metal legends' current trek focuses on their most recent album, 2021's  Senjutsu , along with their 1986 LP  Somewhere in Time . Five songs from each album were played at tonight's show, including the long-awaited debut of Somewhere in Time 's epic "Alexander the Great' and the first-ever performances of four different Senjutsu songs. All told, only four songs remained in the set list from closing night of the band's previous Legacy of the Beast tour.

With singer Bruce Dickinson sporting black goggles and a futuristic full-length jacket, Iron Maiden hit the stage in front of a set resembling the Blade Runner- style Somewhere in Time album art. In a rather unique move, the band announced the set list via Twitter as the show was happening, commemorating each new song with its own specialized image.

The band opened the last leg of its Legacy of the Beast tour with the first three tracks off  Senjutsu , but  Somewhere in Time  has not received much playtime on recent outings.

"As it doesn't make a lot of sense to repeat this for a  Senjutsu  album tour, we thought about other options and we've decided to revisit  Somewhere in Time  as that tour didn't feature in the various retrospective history tours we've played over the years," bassist  Steve Harris  said in a statement.

"They were based on our '80s concert videos and sadly we did not film that tour," he continued. "We have had lots of requests from fans over the years for many tracks on it so we are now going to play them, plus of course a few others we know you will like! It will also be particularly satisfying to finally get to play some of the more epic tracks on  Senjutsu , it's been a long wait!"

Watch Iron Maiden Perform 'Somewhere in Time'

The European leg of the Future Past tour is scheduled to run through early August, before Iron Maiden heads to North America for a trio of Canadian shows in late September and early October. They'll also appear at California's Power Trip  festival alongside Metallica ,  Ozzy Osbourne , AC/DC , Guns N' Roses and Tool .

Australia concerts in 2024: here’s a list of shows and tours coming up

Big names confirmed for tours Down Under in 2024 include Coldplay, Pink, SZA, Hozier, Iron Maiden and more

Fresh out of a pandemic, Australia’s 2023 touring calendar was one of the busiest in recent memory, as artists of all stripes took centrestage everywhere from stadium shows to intimate local gigs. With a starry schedule that included the likes of Post Malone , Red Hot Chili Peppers , and Mötley Crüe , it’ll be tricky for 2024’s schedule to outdo its predecessor – and yet, thanks to the likes of Taylor Swift , Blink-182 and Pink , plus Coldplay, Pearl Jam and SZA later in the year, it’s poised to do just that.

From debut headline shows for breakout artists to bustling festival sideshow programs, there’s something for everyone to enjoy as a stellar batch of musicians make their way Down Under in 2024. Read on for NME’s roundup of all the biggest concerts and tours coming to Australia this year.

Here are the concerts and tours coming to Australia in 2024:

Pink When: February 9 – March 23 Find tickets and more info

Australia bloody loves Pink , and she’s apparently pretty fond of her “home away from home” too. In 2009, she played 58 shows here as part of her Funhouse tour, performing for some 660,000 fans. In 2013, when she announced an Australian tour in support of sixth studio album ‘The Truth About Love’, 320,000 tickets were snapped up within a few hours of them going on sale.

It makes sense, then, that the American singer-songwriter has a slew of dates booked for her return in February and March 2024 as part of her Summer Carnival world tour . She’ll be bringing songs from her ninth studio album ‘Trustfall’ to stadiums around the country, including stops in Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

She’ll be playing a total of four shows at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium and conclude the tour at Townsville’s Queensland Country Bank stadium.

• Depeche Mode

Aussie Depeche Mode fans are an incredibly patient bunch. The last time the British synth-pop titans toured the country was in 1994, meaning nearly three decades have passed since they last paid us a visit. But good things come to those who wait, and it seems there is a glimmer of hope for those hoping to catch the band Down Under.

In March 2023, Depeche Mode’s Dave Gahan told an Italian blog that the band were eyeing “as-yet-unannounced dates in Asia and Australia” as part of a touring run that would lead into 2024. The band have toured the world in support of their latest album, ‘Memento Mori’ , and a trip to Australia to cap off the jaunt seems more likely than ever.

Iron Maiden Announce First Shows Of 2023's The Future Past Tour

Iron Maiden will be bringing a new tour to Europe in the Summer of 2023 including arena shows in the UK & Ireland. The Future Past Tour will feature previously unperformed songs from the band’s most recent studio album, Senjutsu along with a focus on 1986’s iconic Somewhere In Time record, plus other classic cuts.

Keep up to date here. Fan Club Presales begin Tuesday 11 th October. Details here. Support for The Future Past Tour will be announced at a later date. Trooper VIP will be available at selected UK and European dates.

Steve Harris says, “Following the release of our latest album, Senjutsu, we updated the current Legacy of the Beast Tour a little by opening the show with the first 3 songs from it, with the Japanese Palace stage set. As it doesn’t make a lot of sense to repeat this for a Senjutsu album tour, we thought about other options and we’ve decided to revisit Somewhere In Time as that tour didn’t feature in the various retrospective history tours we’ve played over the years. They were based on our 80’s concert videos and sadly we did not film that tour (blame the manager!!).  We have had lots of requests from fans over the years for many tracks on it so we are now going to play them, plus of course a few others we know you will like! It will also be particularly satisfying to finally get to play some of the more epic tracks on Senjutsu, it's been a long wait! 2023 is going to be an exciting time and we’re really looking forward to seeing everyone again in the UK, Ireland and around Europe”. Manager, Rod Smallwood adds, “This combination of the two albums we feel is very exciting. We know fans want to hear those epic cuts on Senjutsu for the first time live and we think that by combining it with an iconic album like Somewhere In Time it will make for another really special tour for fans old and new! Of course, for a new album tour in Europe and the UK we will go back largely to the relative intimacy of arenas and we know fans will be very happy about that too!”
