The next European leg of the “Legacy Of The Beast” tour will now take place in the summer of 2022. All tickets remain valid.
Please note:
* The German Stuttgart 2022 show will now take place at the Cannstatter Wasen, not the Mercedes-Benz Arena, which is not available due to stadium reconstruction works. Tickets remain valid and ticket-holders will be notified by the local promoter/ticketing agency in due course.
* The Swiss show has reverted to Zurich Hallenstadion as was originally planned for 2020, as this venue is now available again for 2022. Therefore, there will be no rescheduled show for Basel St Jakobshalle (which never went on sale this year).
* Zurich along with Frankfurt, Arnhem and Belsonic will go on sale imminently
The postponement of the “Legacy Of The Beast” tour does, however, bring the good news that MAIDEN can now return to headlining the European festival dates initially planned for 2020 which were cancelled due to the pandemic.
This includes Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium, so therefore the MAIDEN show date in Antwerp (which had also not gone on sale) will no longer take place.
Furthermore, MAIDEN is in the process of finalizing a further couple of headlining shows in other European territories and will update fans about those as soon as they are confirmed.
The bands’ manager, Rod Smallwood comments: “Naturally, the band are hugely disappointed — a second summer without touring, especially with this very special ‘Legacy’ show, is very hard to take. They send their best wishes to you all, knowing full well you fans will feel the same.
As we all know, realistically there is no alternative, so we will all make the best of it and spend the time preparing for a very memorable and even more spectacular ‘Legacy’ tour next year, we promise! Until then, keep safe and keep smart.”
