Their first supporting tour with Judas Priest took place between the release of the band's first single, "Running Free", on 8 February and their debut album on 14 April.[33][34] As these shows would be their first following the Metal for Muthas tour, these dates saw Iron Maiden playing major concert halls for the first time, including the Hammersmith Odeon in London.[33]

Their first headline tour of the UK began immediately following their shows supporting Judas Priest on the British Steel Tour, during which they took breaks to play festivals in Belgium and Finland in April and July respectively, their first ever performances in mainland Europe.[35] After completing their first UK leg in August, the band returned to the European mainland to support Kiss on their Unmasked Tour,[36] which saw the group's debut performances in major arenas and stadiums.[37] Following these dates, guitarist Dennis Stratton was replaced by Adrian Smith.[38] After deciding that it would be best to play some shows with Smith before recording their next album, 1981's Killers, the band set out on another UK tour,[39][40] during which their final concert at the Rainbow Theatre in London was filmed for their first ever live video, entitled Live at the Rainbow.[41] | ||||

In support of 1983's Piece of Mind, the band undertook their first complete headlining tour (not supporting any other bands),[57] with new drummer Nicko McBrain.[58] While the band were touring in Texas, footage was recorded for a TV documentary, entitled 'Ello Texas, which was later included in the Live After Death 2008 DVD release.[59] The tour concluded with two concerts at Westfalenhallen in Dortmund, where the band headlined a show which included sets from Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest, Scorpions, Def Leppard and Quiet Riot.[60] The band's concert was recorded for German TV[60] and the footage was later included in The Early Days DVD. | ||||

The band's longest and most arduous tour to date, the opening concerts in Poland were reportedly the first time a western artist had taken a full stage production into the Eddie, the band's mascot.[64] In addition to the Eastern Bloc, the band performed their first show in South America, co-headlining the Rock in Rio festival with Queen, with an attendance of 300,000 (thus making it the largest concert the band have ever played).[12] Iron Maiden also undertook their most extensive North American tour ever, including 7 consecutive sell out shows at Radio City Music Hall, although the band were forced to cancel the last two nights as Dickinson was ill,[12][65] while their four performances from Long Beach, California were released in audio and video formats as Live After Death in 1985.[66] Recordings from the Hammersmith Odeon concerts were also included in the Live After Death audio release.[67]

1986–87 | Somewhere on Tour | 10 September – 18 December 1986 (Europe) 7 January – 2 May 1987 (North America) 11 – 21 May 1987 (Japan) |

Following the gruelling World Slavery Tour, the band took more time off before departing on their next successful, although less rigorous, world tour.[68] No footage from the tour was released, except for a small clip used in the 12 Wasted Years documentary as well as bootleg recordings by fans. According to manager Rod Smallwood, he thought it was too soon after 1985's Live After Death to issue another concert video and very little footage was recorded, a decision with which bassist Steve Harris was not pleased.[69] | ||||
1988 | Seventh Tour of a Seventh Tour | 28 – 29 April (West Germany) 8 May – 10 August 1988 (North America) 18 August – 5 October 1988 (Europe) 18 November – 12 December 1988 (United Kingdom) |

The band set out on another world tour in support of Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, during which they made their debut at Donington Park's Monsters of Rock festival, where they headlined before an audience of 107,000, the largest crowd in the venue's history.[15] The following winter, the band performed in arenas in the UK for the first time, during which the Birmingham NEC shows were recorded and released the following year as Maiden England.[70] As he would leave during No Prayer for the Dying's pre-production stages, this would be the last tour with Adrian Smith on guitar before his return in 1999. |

For their first concert tour with Janick Gers on guitar,[71] and following the more elaborate production of their 1980s shows, the band decided to return to using a less extensive stage set, featuring fewer props and other effects.[6] Apart from two B-sides on their 1992 single, "From Here to Eternity", no live recordings from this tour were released. | ||||

In support of 1992's Fear of the Dark, the band made a return headline appearance at the Monsters of Rock festival at Donington Park, featuring a guest appearance by Adrian Smith during the encores, which was later released in 1993 in audio and video formats.[14] In addition, A Real Live One and some of A Real Dead One (both released in 1993) were recorded at various venues across Europe.[72] Having last performed there at the Rock in Rio festival in 1984, Iron Maiden returned to South America, although the Chilean show was cancelled following complaints from the Catholic Church, who accused the band of being Satanists.[73] | ||||
1993 | Real Live Tour | 25 March – 28 August 1993 (Europe) | 45[74] |
|
This would be the band's last tour with Bruce Dickinson on vocals before he returned to the band in 1999,[7] with his farewell show, featuring horror magician Simon Drake, taking place at Pinewood Studios and released on video as Raising Hell (1994).[74] Named after the live album, A Real Live One, concerts from this tour comprised most of its follow-up, A Real Dead One.[72] | ||||

For their world tour in support of 1998's Virtual XI, the band decided to make their first visits to Turkey and Malta,[77] as well as return to a more elaborate production reminiscent of their 1980s stage shows.[78] As with their previous tour, several dates had to be cancelled as Blaze Bayley suffered from vocal issues, which ultimately brought about his departure from the group.[79] | ||||
1999 | The Ed Hunter Tour | 11 July – 8 August 1999 (North America) 9 September – 1 October 1999 (Europe) |

|
Following the return of Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith in January, Iron Maiden decided to undertake a short tour in 1999 with their new six-piece line-up before they recorded their next studio album, 2000's Brave New World.[80] Tying in with the band's new video game and greatest hits collection, Ed Hunter (1999), this was the only time that the band's set-list was compiled from the results of an internet poll.[81] Smith was absent from three concerts to attend his father's funeral,[82] while an injury to Dave Murray's finger in Los Angeles led to the cancellation of the three following shows.[83] |

As the band did not play in Britain on The Ed Hunter Tour, Iron Maiden's first UK show with their new line-up took place at Earls Court, London and sold out in 3 days.[84] The tour also saw the band return to large venues in the US, such as Madison Square Garden, which sold out in 2 hours.[85] Three European concerts were cancelled after Janick Gers fell off-stage in Mannheim.[86][87] The tour ended with a performance at the third Rock in Rio, with an estimated attendance of 250,000, which was released on audio and video the following year.[13] Although intending to take time off in 2002, the band held three charity concerts at Brixton Academy, London in March 2002 for former drummer, Clive Burr, shortly after announcing that he had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.[88] | ||||

To preview their forthcoming Dance of Death album, the band undertook a summer tour of Europe and North America, during which they headlined the first edition of Download Festival at Donington Park before an audience of 45,000.[16][89] The stage decoration was based on artwork from the band's past releases, while the Eddie props were based on the 2002 compilation, Edward the Great, and the 2003 music video collection, Visions of the Beast.[90] | ||||
