Who’s Opening for Iron Maiden on Their North American Tour?<\/p>\n

Iron Maiden’s 2026 North American tour will feature support on nearly all dates from Megadeth<\/a>, who are set to release their self-titled final album<\/a> in January. Fellow “Big 4” thrashers Anthrax<\/a> will also provide support on select shows.<\/p>\n

The ongoing trek, which launched<\/a> in May and celebrates Iron Maiden’s 50th anniversary, will feature songs from\u00a0the band’s first nine albums, from 1980’s\u00a0Iron Maiden<\/a> through 1992’s\u00a0Fear of the Dark<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“This whole tour has been such great fun,” lead singer Bruce Dickinson<\/a> said in a statement announcing the North American trek.\u00a0“I really enjoy belting out all these great old songs, and the whole band are loving playing them too!<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve got all the big ones from that early period including ‘Hallowed,’ ‘Run to the Hills,’ ‘Trooper,’ ‘Number of the Beast,’ ‘Killers,’ ‘Powerslave,’ ‘2 Minutes\u2026’ and some of them we haven\u2019t played in the U.S. for over 20 years!! Plus there\u2019s some real epics including my particular\u00a0favorite, \u2018Rime of the Ancient Mariner,\u2019 and ‘Seventh Son…’ We are doing them all and more. I mean, who wouldn\u2019t for a 50th birthday party!”<\/p>\n
