The Maiden England Tour invades German arenas in June.

While a lot of us were speculating that Iron Maiden would return to the twin festival Rock Am Ring and Rock Im Park in early June, we were all proven wrong.

It seems like Maiden have opted to copy the immensly successful arena tour they did for The Final Frontier Tour in 2011. All dates were sold out in due time before the tour kicked of in Frankfurt the 28th of May.

The 5 date trek includes one open air show in Singen-Aach.

The official statement reads:

More dates have been added to the Maiden England European Tour 2013. Maiden will play 5 shows in Germany. The dates are: the Festhalle Frankfurt on 11 June, the O2 World in Berlin on 18 June, O2 World in Hamburg on 19 June, Open Air Arena Singen-Aach on 29 June and Open Air an der KöPi-Arena in Oberhausen on 06 July.

Tickets will go on sale in Germany on Saturday, 20 October 2012. Tickets are available through all official box offices, the national ticket hotline 01805 – 570 000 (14 ct./min., mobile prices max 42 ct./min) or online at www.eventim.de. An exclusive first ticket pre-sale for Iron Maiden Fan Club members will run from 15 October, 10am until 16 October 6pm. Fan club members will also be eligible in the draw to be ’First To The Barrier’.
