Following last week’s reveal of their ‘Run For Your Lives’ World Tour 2026 European dates, heavy metal legends Iron Maiden have confirmed their return to the UK with a major outdoor headline show at the historic Knebworth Park.
The band will host a full Iron Maiden-curated weekend, transforming Knebworth into “Maiden World” with themed attractions. Fans can expect the largest-ever Eddie’s Dive Bar, Maiden-inspired food stalls, exclusive stands, and a modern twist on the venue’s iconic Knebworth Fayre tradition.
A specially selected supporting line-up has also been announced:
The Darkness
The Hu
Airbourne
The Almighty
For those camping on-site, Friday night will feature Maiden-themed entertainment, including DJs, live music, attractions, and the expanded dive bar experience, setting the stage for the headline event.
The Knebworth performance continues Iron Maiden’s celebration of five decades as one of metal’s most influential acts. Tickets go on sale Saturday, September 27th at 10 a.m. UK time via ironmaiden.knebworth.com, myticket.co.uk, ticketmaster.co.uk, and ironmaiden.com.
