Iron Maiden with special guests Megadeth

Saturday 7 November 2026 | Spark Arena, Auckland

This isn't just another gig; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime look back at the first nine albums that shaped the genre. From "The Number Of The Beast" to "Powerslave," Iron Maiden are bringing the hits that turned them into global icons. Adding some serious weight to the night, Megadeth join the bill as very special guests, making this an absolute powerhouse lineup for Kiwi metalheads.

Expect a brand new state-of-the-art stage show and the debut of Eddie’s Pop-up Dive Bar, featuring Trooper Beer and exclusive tour merch for the full Maiden experience. Steve Harris says the band is "very excited" to bring this level of chaos to Spark Arena, especially with long-time mate Dave Mustaine and Megadeth in tow.
