Iron Maiden Finally Bring ‘Run for Your Lives’ Tour to North America

More than a year after their Run for Your Lives tour launched in Europe, Iron Maiden have brought their newest stage show to North America. After Megadeth performed, the heavy metal legends delivered a 17-song set featuring songs from their first nine studio albums — 1980’s Iron Maiden to 1992’s Fear of the Dark — in front of a packed crowd at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena.

You can see the complete setlist and fan-shot videos and brand new photos from the show below.

Tour Plans and Rock Hall Absence

Iron Maiden will spend the next month touring North America, and keep very busy for the rest of 2026 with dates in South America, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. Be warned, they are planning to take 2027 off from the road, so fans are encouraged to catch them while they can. One thing the band will not make time for is an appearance at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Nov. 14 in Los Angeles. The group, who have largely reacted with disinterest when asked about their long-overdue induction into what singer Bruce Dickinson once referred to as a “vulgar” mausoleum, have other plans.

“As the most observant have already noticed, the band will be on tour in Australia around the November date of the Induction ceremony for the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in Los Angeles,” manager Rod Smallwood explained earlier this year. “In accepting, Iron Maiden made it very clear to the R&R HoF that the fans always come first and that the shows will of course go on.”
