Iron Maiden returns to North America for the 2019 Legacy of the Beast Tour
Raise the horns for what Maiden is calling one of their biggest tours ever.
Metal fans across the world are likely very familiar with Iron Maiden.
The British heavy metal group has “raised the horns” since 1975, with 16 full length albums under their belt. And they have their eyes on North America for 2019, touring as many as 34 different cities on the Legacy of the Beast Tour ’19.
The band has an elaborate stage show planned for the tour, with elaborate set designs representing different worlds and time periods, based on the Legacy of the Beast mobile game, which features their longtime mascot Eddie.
The stage will feature props, ranging in size from swords and muskets to a full-size replica Spitfire — a British World War II fighter plane — and many, many pyrotechnics.
