Iron Maiden will be bringing The Future Past Tour to Australia and New Zealand next year.

The Future Past Tour which includes songs from both the band’s most recent studio album Senjutsu as well as 1986’s seminal album Somewhere In Time, alongside other fan favourites, played to over 750,000 fans at more than 30 sold-out shows across Europe in the summer of 2023.

Featuring one of the most spectacular stage productions of the band’s career, it received rave reviews in every city and country that Iron Maiden visited. Support on all shows comes from Killswitch Engage.

In the short clip, an off-camera reporter asks members of the band where they’re travelling next. While none of them seem to give a clear answer, the Australian flag on the equipment, a boomerang on their record, the classic cork hat and guitar technician Colin Price playing Waltzing Matilda is a bit of a no-brainer.

Check out their really, really subtle teaser below.

Bassist Steve Harris says, “We’ve really enjoyed playing all the shows on THE FUTURE PAST TOUR this year, and the reaction from our fans has been incredible. Being able to play some of these songs for the very first time has made the tour even more memorable and we can’t wait to continue it next year. We’re all really excited to finally be able to return to Australia as we know our fans have waited so patiently for us over the past few years.

“It’s going to be great to get back there, especially with this new show. We promise you all, it’ll be worth the wait!”
