Iron Maiden - The Final Frontier UK Tour 2011

So, who all here is going to be trying to get tickets? I was thinking about joining the fan club to get some pre-sale links myself, but the site's been down all morning so far! Anyone know of other sites that are doing a presale?

I was looking on livenation.co.uk earlier and it says there's a pre-sale this friday, with the main public sale on Saturday, the site is linked with Ticketmaster though, so I can imagine it being a complete whiteout, I haven't had success with getting tickets for major events with Ticketmaster for a long, long time...

Presale for UK dates (other than Ireland) started this morning. Got 2 standing tickets for Nottingham

Yeah, I went and got myself 4 tickets for Aberdeen through the fanclub pre-sale. Can't wait!

I may grab some tickets - thoroughly enjoyed their last gig up this way. I really need to sit down and listen to their last album - musically they might not be my cup of tea any more, but I do enjoy seeing them live

See they're playing Glasgow July 20th - really want to get tickets. How do you get the pre sales ones?

R0B75 · 15 Nov 2010 at 14:59

To get in to the pre sale you need to be a member of the IMFC which costs £10 per year.

Not gonna go to the extent of joining the fanclub to get presale, will either get a promotor presale on Friday or get them on Saturday morning.

RoachycaL · 15 Nov 2010 at 17:44

Will be grabbing a few tickets for the Newcastle show. Cant wait

One part of me wants to go see them, the other thinks they haven't bothered to play in the UK except one or two dates in London or festivals for years, so they can shove it.

I asked my mates if they wanted to go, but they weren't bothered so that made the decision for me.

Hoping to pick up some tickets for Aberdeen when they go on sale on Sat. Was surprised to see them playing here.

Hmm, would like to get some seated tickets.

Do they usually allocate a worse selection of seats on the pre-sales and it's better to wait until the public sale, or is it the opposite way round?

Yeah I know, it made my day when I found out they were playing here! I probably would have travelled to SECC for it as I've never seen them live, but I do that so often for gigs, it gets bloody pricey.

Also, give this link a try on Friday mate, the link says there's a presale then at least... http://www.livenation.co.uk/event/21977/iron-maiden-tickets

Nice one, thanks.

When, where and who with?

Gaijin · 16 Nov 2010 at 09:36

Got mine via a friend who is a fan club member *Pelvic thrusts*

o2 blueroom tickets on sale 9:00am on thurs, looks like there's countless presales, so standing may go very quickly on saturday.
Non-standing I'd be surprised if it sells out, hasn't done the past few tours, although probably on better form now.

If it's similar to the US setlist - which it probably will be, then I don't know if I can be bothered:

01. The Wicker Man
02. The Ghost Of The Navigator
03. Brighter Than A Thousand Suns
04. El Dorado
05. Paschendale
06. The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg
07. These Colours Don't Run
08. Blood Brothers
09. Wildest Dreams
10. No More Lies
11. Brave New World
12. Fear Of The Dark
13. Iron Maiden

Encore:
14. The Number Of the Beast
15. Hallowed Be Thy Name
16. Running Free

It won't be. They have already said the set list change from that of the US tour and will be a mix of more of the new album, recent stuff and classics.
