Two of heavy metal’s most iconic giants—Judas Priest and Iron Maiden—have revealed plans for a joint farewell tour set to rock the world in 2026..

 

Two of heavy metal’s icons, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, are both active with major tours around 2025-2026, but there is no confirmed joint farewell tour announced involving both bands together.

 

Iron Maiden has officially announced their “Run For Your Lives” world tour spanning 2025-2026 to celebrate their 50th anniversary. This extensive tour kicks off in May 2025 in Budapest and covers numerous stadiums and arenas across Europe with a special setlist covering their classic albums from their debut to Fear of the Dark. The tour features supporting acts like Halestorm, Avatar, and The Raven Age[1][4].

 

Judas Priest is also preparing a significant 2026 tour with new material, including their 19th studio album Eternal Echoes released in early 2026. Their tour promises a spectacular stage production blending classic metal aesthetics with modern technology, and a setlist combining classic hits and new tracks. However, as of the latest updates, Judas Priest has not announced any joint farewell tour with Iron Maiden or any combined tour plans for 2026[3][6].

 

While both bands are touring heavily and are sometimes compared or contrasted by fans and commentators regarding setlists and performances[2], the idea of a joint farewell tour for 2026 has not been officially confirmed or detailed by either band or their management.

 

If you want to follow their individual tours and get updates on any future announcements, it’s best to check their official websites and social media channels regularly.
