Bruce Dickinson announces 2027 European solo tour
The stage is set for a massive musical return, as Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson is gearing up for a thrilling string of European and UK tour dates across the summer, autumn, and winter of 2026.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. Dickinson is also hitting the road with his solo band, Psychogod, embarking on a dedicated tour from June to July. This run will feature headline performances and festival sets, offering fans an immersive look into the singer’s current creative output.
Following the intense work of recording his latest solo album, which follows up on the acclaimed The Mandrake Project, the new shows will showcase a comprehensive range of new material alongside beloved fan favorites and deep cuts spanning his entire solo career.
The music itself is clearly the driving force behind the project. Dickinson recently reflected on the power of genuine musical creation, asserting that true artistry transcends technology. “What we do is real and that’s so important right now,” he stated. “A real drummer, a real bass player, real guitarists, real keyboards – A.I. can only copy, it can only pretend. It can never be in love, and it can never play. This band? They can really play!”
The Psychogod lineup is equally formidable, featuring guitarists Chris Declercq and Philip Näslund, bassist Tanya O’Callaghan, keyboardist Mistheria, and drummer Dave Moreno.
The solo work has been fueled by high-level production, with the album being recorded live in early 2026. Tracking took place at Studio 606 in Los Angeles, a legendary space owned by Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl, and the project featured members of Brazilian heavy metal greats Sepultura.
While the solo adventure continues, Dickinson will also be hitting the road with Iron Maiden. Despite previous statements about long breaks, the British institution is set to play a string of North American dates in the spring, including a headline slot at the iconic Sonic Temple festival.
The upcoming itinerary is packed. The solo tour kicks off with Psychogod in the summer, followed by a headline run in November and December supported by Swedish prog/power metal band Evergrey. This is all part of a sprawling schedule that keeps the musical magic flowing.
Fans can secure their tickets for these exciting performances starting Friday, October 30.
