Iron Maiden will bring their grandiose Maiden England World Tour to Eastern Europe this summer.
So far the band has released a string of festival dates for summer 2014. Just released are three headline shows in the eastern parts of Europe, including two indoor shows in Budapest, Hungary at Budapest Arena and Sofia, Bulgaria at Arena Armeets. And finally an outdoor show in Brno, Czech Republic. The show at Velodrom marks Iron Maiden’s first visit to Brno.
Iron Maiden was scheduled to play the Sonisphere Festival in Sofia in 2011 but the event was cancelled due to “logistical” issues.
The dates are:
03.06 Budapeset, Hungary
08.06 Brno, Czech Republic
16.06 Sofia, Bulgaria
Head on over to Maiden’s official site for ticket information!
Why they are not doing a UK arena tour for this show is beyond me.
Love the blog BTW!
I guess, with fans across the whole world, Rod and co may not see the UK as a special case any more. There were London shows last year and there’s Knebworth this year. Whilst that sucks if you’re in Scotland or Cornwall, I would imagine that travel times across Mexico, Argentina or Poland are worse.
True…. but I was thinking more of the fact that they toured the US and Canada extensively (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maiden_England_World_Tour) and the UK gets 1/2 festival dates. Seems a bit silly to me
Ireland is due a trip too badly
