Future Past World Tour route

The Future Past World Tour focuses on material from Senjutsu and the 1986 classic Somewhere in Time, framed by a full-scale arena production. The current itinerary lists multiple shows across Germany, Spain, Italy and the UK, with capacities in the 10,000 to 15,000 range.Live Nation UK listings

Beyond Europe, Iron Maiden also schedule dates in Mexico, Brazil, Chile and Argentina, maintaining their strong foothold in Latin America. These shows are booked in large arenas and stadiums, underscoring the band’s continued international draw across generations of heavy metal fans.

U.S. fans watching the calendar

For U.S. listeners, Iron Maiden remain a touring staple even without freshly announced 2026 U.S. arena dates yet on the books. Earlier American legs of recent tours regularly included markets like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Dallas, anchoring the band’s profile in the States.Songkick tour history

The current 2026 schedule concentrates on Europe and Latin America first, but the scale of the production makes an eventual North American swing plausible from a touring logistics perspective. Fans in the U.S. will be tracking official announcements closely as new blocks of dates are added.

The musical core of Iron Maiden live

On the Future Past World Tour, Iron Maiden emphasize their dual identity as pioneers of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal and as arena-scale storytellers. Fast, melodic twin-guitar lines from Dave Murray and Adrian Smith drive the sound, tightly locked with Steve Harris’s signature galloping bass.

Bruce Dickinson’s operatic vocals shape the narrative arc of the set, moving from recent material like Senjutsu to deep cuts from Somewhere in Time. Visual elements, including elaborate stage sets and the recurring appearance of mascot Eddie, underline the theatrical dimension of their concerts.

Where the band stands now

Iron Maiden’s next live date on the current itinerary is a Future Past World Tour arena show in Berlin in late 2026, reflecting an ongoing global tour schedule with more international dates expected to follow.
