Iron Maiden tickets are set to go on sale for an expected sell-out UK tour including a Manchester date at the AO Arena on 30 June.
Tickets will go on sale today (Friday 14 October) at 9am on Ticketmaster for the tour including the Manchester date as the heavy metal superstars celebrate the launch of their latest album, Senjutsu.
Fans will need to log in and create a Ticketmaster account here before joining the queue for tickets as demand is expected to be high for the tour.
Tickets for dates in Dublin, Glasgow and Leeds will also go on sale, along with gigs in Nottingham, Birmingham and London. There will also be European dates in Krakow, Zurich, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Milan. The tour has been announced following the launch of the new studio album Senjutsu.
Founder member and bassist 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!!)."
The band are currently in North America in the final stages of their spectacular Legacy Of The Beast World Tour, interrupted for two years by Covid with many shows rescheduled twice.
Support on the UK & Ireland tour will be announced at a later date. The shows are:

After receiving nearly 100,000 submissions, it is now the frontrunner for the Recording Academy’s new song for social change Grammy award.
