Iron Maiden’s hugely successful The Book Of Souls World Tour has returned to North America for an extensive series of arena and amphitheater shows. The mammoth tour opened in Florida last February playing fourteen sold-out shows in the US and Canada along with a further 58 concerts in 34 other countries around the globe.

Steve Harris commented; “We are really looking forward to returning to North America. 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 on sale via Livenation.com or Ticketmaster.ca or call 1-855-985-5000.

As usual, there will be an exclusive pre-sale for Iron Maiden Fan Club members, details of which can also be found on Ironmaiden.com along with information on how Fan Club members can participate in the draw to be First To The Barrier.

Ghost will open all shows for the North American leg of The Book Of Souls World Tour.
