Iron Maiden have announced details of a UK arena tour, which is due to take place next summer.

The band will play ten shows as they come to the end of their Final Frontier world tour.

The UK leg kicks off in Glasgow on July 20 and concludes in London on August 5.

Iron Maiden founder Steve Harris said: “Everything in the Maiden camp has been so full on these last five years or so that we haven't travelled around the UK to play for our home fans for almost that long.

“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.”

Tickets go on sale on November 20 at 10am. For more details and to buy Iron Maiden tickets, check out Gigwise Gig Tickets.
