21.06.2026 - 00:39:38 | ad-hoc-news.de
Iron Maiden remain one of the most tireless live bands in heavy music. The group’s ongoing The Future Past Tour now stretches well into 2027, with new arena and stadium dates confirmed across South America and Asia according to the band’s official tour schedule Iron Maiden tour page.
New 2027 dates and global route
The official tour listing shows Iron Maiden returning to Mexico City’s Foro Sol on November 20, 2026, before moving into South America with shows in Santiago, São Paulo and Buenos Aires in late November and early December Live Nation Latin America listing. Additional concerts in early 2027 follow in markets including Tokyo and Osaka.
These dates extend a run that has already taken the band through major European festivals and arenas, plus a North American leg that hit cities such as New York, Chicago and Los Angeles in 2024 and 2025. Ticketing platforms list many of the new South American shows as either low on remaining seats or close to sold out.
What this means for US fans
The current tour routing does not list fresh US dates for 2026 or 2027 beyond the North American legs already completed in 2024 and 2025 Songkick tour history. For American fans, the focus now shifts to potential festival plays or standalone arena returns once the extended world leg winds down.
Historically, Iron Maiden have revisited key US markets on later phases of major tours, especially when a show concept proves popular internationally. The Future Past production, which combines material from Somewhere in Time and Senjutsu, has been prominent in fan-shot footage from previous US arena stops.
