Since 1975 Iron Maiden have had the opposite of wasted years, instead they've been running free as one of the biggest heavy metal bands in history. Now, these titans are back for a special 50th anniversary tour, coming to the UK and Ireland next summer – here's how you can get your hands on some tickets.

As part of their Run for your Lives world tour, Iron Maiden will be back on home turf for five shows in June 2025, stopping off in Birmingham, Manchester, Dublin, London and Glasgow.

In celebration of the big 5-0, the band have promised their "most spectacular and elaborate shows ever" complete with a special set list spanning all nine studio albums, from Iron Maiden to Fear Of The Dark.

To make things even more special, the band's actual 50th anniversary (28th June) will be spent performing at the iconic London Stadium, first constructed for the 2012 London Olympics and now the home of founder Steve Harris's lifelong love: West Ham FC.

In a press release, Harris said: “My love of football and my support of West Ham is no secret, and I know many of our fans around the world have shared that with me too. So we’re all very excited to be playing at the London Stadium as part of the Run for Your Lives tour."
