Iron Maiden Announce Massive Knebworth Park 2026 Show: Iron Maiden have announced a huge UK show next summer. On July 11, they will perform a special “Run For Your Lives” outdoor headline concert at Knebworth Park in England, about 30 miles north of London. The show will feature special guests including The Hu, The Darkness, Airbourne, and The Almighty.
Manager Rod Smallwood said the band wanted to bring the show back to the UK after the massive demand for tickets this year, but also wanted to make it different from their big London Stadium concert.
The event will include the largest Eddie’s Dive Bar ever, with Maiden-themed food, stands, and fun experiences, plus their own version of the historic Knebworth Fayre. Knebworth Park itself has hosted legendary acts like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Queen, and its huge space allows for a unique fan experience.
Iron Maiden also have history at Knebworth, including headline performances at Sonisphere Festival, where fans witnessed a World War I centenary dogfight with singer Bruce Dickinson flying a Fokker triplane.
The concert will open early on Friday for campers, with Eddie’s Dive Bar and special Maiden-themed entertainment. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. BST on Saturday, Sept. 27. The show is being organized by Kilimanjaro Live, Phantom Music, K2 Agency, and ACTION!.
