Iron Maiden Announce North American 'The Book Of Souls' Tour Dates With Ghost

Written by Jon Stickler
Iron Maiden will bring their The Book of Souls world tour back to North America this summer.
Having opened the mammoth trek in Florida last February, the legendary British metallers will be joined by special guests Ghost for a second leg of arena and amphitheatre shows, kicking off on June 3 in Bristow, Virginia and culminating in mid July with the band's first show in Brooklyn, New York. Speaking about the new dates, Maiden founder and bassist, Steve Harris said:
"We are really looking forward to returning to North America for a full tour. We had always planned to go back there and to the UK as last year, due to the global nature of the tour and the period it took, we just didn’t have time to cover them properly and we do still like to get to fans in as many places as possible!
"So this year we’re able to reach many more cities in America, including a return to places Maiden haven’t played for many, many years like Lincoln Nebraska, Minneapolis, Oklahoma City and Oakland California. We also welcome playing in Brooklyn for the first time.
"We will, of course, be bringing the full production with us including all the Eddies and the Maya-themed stage sets. There’s been a great reaction from everyone to this tour’s theme, people really seem to love it. We’re still deciding on the final set-list and we’ll work that out once we get into rehearsals. Most of our North American fans haven’t seen the show yet so as we want to give them the same Book Of Souls live experience that we took around the world, it’s unlikely we’ll change much. And of course we know our fans appreciate us playing a lot of the older songs too, so we will continue to do that!"
Tickets are on general sale at 10am on January 27.
