Iron Maiden Tickets

Iron Maiden has been rocking the heavy metal stage since 1975 and, during their initial success in the 1980s, have set the path for other British heavy metal bands. This legendary band has about 39 albums under their discography with many of them reaching platinum and gold. Head to the Iron Maiden concert tour to see one of the most successful heavy metal bands in history perform live!

The Formative Years

In 1975 on Christmas Day, Iron Maiden was created by the bassist Steve Harris. Over the next few years, the band solidified its line-up and played in different pubs across England to gain recognition. It wasn’t until 1978 when the band recorded its first demo. They later sent a copy off to a London-based DJ who ended up playing it regularly at a heavy metal club.

Within a year, the band was signed onto a record label and released their self-titled album in 1980. They headlined their own UK tour and followed it up by being an opener for Kiss on their 1980’s Unmasked Tour. In 1981, Iron Maiden released their second studio album entitled Killers and, with much success, performed their first world tour.

Iron Maiden became a huge hit in the heavy metal world. With the release of their third studio album in 1982, Iron Maiden saw it rise to the top of the UK Albums chart with the album also becoming a top contender in many other countries. In 2010, The New York Times stated that Iron Maiden had sold over 14 million copies of The Number of the Beast internationally.

Current Whereabouts

After their third album, Iron Maiden continues to prove again and again that their music is needed and has been well-awarded. It wasn’t until the late 1990s, when Iron Maiden received their first Grammy nomination, that the band began receiving recognition awards. From then on, Iron Maiden has won awards for being the best live act, having the best metal performances, and being the best band throughout England overall.

This band has been delivering the best performances in concert, and they have the awards to prove it. No wonder Iron Maiden tickets sell out! Despite being in the business for well over four decades, Iron Maiden refuses to step down and continues to make and perform music. Fans from all over the world come to see Iron Maiden rock out in concert. Check out the Iron Maiden tour schedule for a show near you!
