Iron Maiden to stream final concert of Book Of Souls tour



Iron Maiden will stream the final concert on The Book Of Souls World Tour from the Wacken Open Air Festival in Wacken, Germany on August 4.

On the road since late February, the veteran metal outfit have played 72 shows in 36 countries across six continents to over 1.5 million fans.

The band are teaming up with ARTE concert and Livestream to deliver the last show of the run.

"We decided to finish the tour at Wacken as it is the ideal way to end this magical tour playing to 80,000 core metal fans at this legendary Metal festival,” says Iron Maiden manager Rod Smallwood. “Wacken has become such as international event with many thousands of fans from many other countries around the world joining and celebrating with the German fans so it is perfect for the final show of a memorable tour.

“Everywhere we’ve played the fans have been amazing and the reaction to the new songs and stage show has been phenomenal. The band has loved every minute on stage.

“So when Wacken and ARTE asked us to consider a live stream of our performance there we jumped at the chance to give our fans an end of tour gift. Streaming this final show live globally allows us to thank the many fans we played to so far, and, for those who couldn’t get to see us this time round, a chance to see just how spectacular the live concert is and what they missed!”

Iron Maiden at Wacken Open Air will be streamed live on Thursday, August 4 from 9.30 pm CET via Livestream and wacken.com
