Iron Maiden confirm Belfast visit

Metal fans rejoice - Iron Maiden have confirmed an Irish stop-off next year as part of their extensive ten city 'Final Frontier' arena world tour. They will play Belfast's Odyssey Arena on Wednesday August 3.

Maiden founder member Steve Harris says: "We very much look forward to playing all four home countries and a couple of places we haven’t been for a very long time, Aberdeen and Belfast!"

The tour is in conjunction with the band’s fifteenth (yep - FIFTEENTH!) studio album The Final Frontier, which was released in August this year. It reached the top of the charts in an impressive 28 countries.

Tickets for the show go on sale on November 20. See [link]www.ironmaiden.com[/link] for pre-sale information.
