About Iron Maiden

Iron Maiden are one of the most influential and successful heavy metal bands in history, formed in East London in 1975 by bassist Steve Harris. Pioneers of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the band, fronted by the operatic vocals of Bruce Dickinson and powered by a triple-guitar attack, has sold more than 100 million records worldwide. Famous for anthems like Run to the Hills, The Trooper and The Number of the Beast, for their elaborate live shows and for their ghoulish mascot Eddie, Maiden built one of music's most devoted global fanbases. In 2026 the band celebrates its 50th anniversary on the Run For Your Lives World Tour, a career-spanning spectacle drawing on its golden-era catalog.
