In celebration of their 50th Anniversary, the band will be performing at stadiums and major amphitheaters across the United States and Canada, delivering a once-in-a-lifetime setlist of songs from the group's groundbreaking first nine albums.
The leg will mark 45 years since Iron Maiden first visited Canada and the USA on the 1981 Killer World Tour, and feature some of the biggest shows the band has ever played there.
The month-long run - whith openers Megadeth and some appearances by Anthrax - will open in Toronto, ON on August 29.
“We are greatly looking forward to bringing this Run For Your Lives Tour to North America and hope the fans enjoy seeing the show and hearing the set list as much as we do playing it," says Steve Harris. "It’s an added bonus to have a few of our good friends on the tour with us. Megadeth are playing all the shows and it’s an honour to have them join us on their last ever tour. We also have Anthrax with us on the bigger shows, we had a great time with them when they came out with us on Ed Force One around the world in 2016. We’re delighted to have both bands with us for this tour and know our fans will enjoy seeing them.”
An exclusive Iron Maiden Fan Club presale begins on Tuesday October 28, while headline shows go on general sale on Friday October 31.
