Iron Maiden announce tour of Australia and New Zealand



Iron Maiden will continue their Legacy Of The Beast Tour into 2020, as the band announces dates for a series of concerts in Australia and New Zealand next May.

The two-week, six-show run – with guests Killswitch Engage – will open in Perth on May 1 before hitting Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne before wrapping up in Auckland on May 13.

“We’ve had a fantastic time on the Legacy tour so far, and the reaction everywhere to the stage show and all the crazy props (and Eddie!) I get to play with has been phenomenal,” says Bruce Dickinson. “The whole band has been having such fun we’re really excited to bring this production back out on the road next year”

Tickets for the new dates will go on sale on Thursday, November 14; for details by city, visit ironmaiden.com.

Iron Maiden will reveal more 2020 shows in the coming days.

On November 22, the iconic metal band will issue the fourth and final batch of releases in their album reissue series.

A continuation of their remastered Studio Collection project – which saw 2014/2017’s black vinyl releases and 2015’s Mastered for iTunes project – the digipacks will present the track listing matching the original UK releases using audio taken from the same remasters as the 2015 hi-res digital releases.

The series will wrap up with 2003’s “Dance Of Death”, 2006’s “A Matter Of Life And Death”, 2010’s “The Final Frontier” and 2015’s “The Book Of Souls.”
