Legendary metal band returns to the stage for massive international tour, starting May 2025 in Budapest

Iron Maiden fans, brace yourselves—the iconic British heavy metal band has just announced their “Run For Your Lives” World Tour, set to kick off in May 2025. The tour will begin with a highly anticipated opening night in Budapest, Hungary, and will see the band tearing through 27 stadiums, festivals, and arena venues across Europe before heading to other parts of the world.

 

Known for their electrifying stage shows, powerful vocals, and explosive guitar solos, Iron Maiden continues to prove that they are far from slowing down. With a career that spans over four decades, the band shows no signs of losing momentum, and this tour is shaping up to be one of their most ambitious yet.

 

“Run For Your Lives” is not just a nod to their legendary 1982 hit “Run to the Hills,” but also a signal that Iron Maiden intends to deliver a high-octane live experience to their global fanbase. The band’s management has confirmed that the tour will blend classic Maiden anthems with tracks from their latest album, alongside a revamped stage production that promises to be “bigger, louder, and more immersive than ever before.”

 

Bruce Dickinson, the band’s frontman, shared his excitement in a statement earlier today:

> “We’ve been working on something really special for this tour. Fans can expect a fresh show with new visuals and a setlist that spans our full career. It’s going to be one hell of a ride—we can’t wait to get back on the road.”

The European leg of the tour will include stops in major cities like Paris, Berlin, London, Madrid, Rome, and Stockholm, as well as headlining slots at some of Europe’s biggest rock and metal festivals. Tour organizers have hinted at a North and South American leg to follow in late 2025, with shows in Asia and Australia slated for early 2026.

Tickets for the European dates will go on sale starting Friday, April 26th, with pre-sales available to Iron Maiden fan club members 48 hours prior. Demand is expected to be extremely high, with some venues likely to sell out within minutes.

Iron Maiden’s last major tour, “Legacy of the Beast,” drew massive crowds worldwide and received widespread acclaim for its theatrical production and deep-cut setlist. “Run For Your Lives” looks to raise the bar even higher, marking another milestone in the band’s enduring legacy.

Stay tuned for the full list of dates and venues, which will be announced in the coming days. One thing is certain—when Iron Maiden hits the road in 2025, metalheads around the globe will be running to get tickets.
