Neg Earth Lights the Way for Iron Maiden’s Run For Your Lives Tour

A Landmark Production

The iconic English heavy metal band, Iron Maiden, embarked on their 18-month ‘Run For Your Lives’ world tour in May 2025, and we are proud to have provided the lighting package for this landmark production. Celebrating half a century of heavy metal magic, the tour brings an ambitious production and creative vision to audiences across North and South America, Europe, Australia and Asia. The tour has already demonstrated its global appeal, with more than one million tickets sold across the first 32 shows in Europe alone.

Five Decades of Heavy Metal

Few acts can claim a legacy spanning five decades, and even less have continued to release new music and perform at the very highest level throughout that time. Formed in 1975, Iron Maiden have built a reputation not only for their music, but for the scale and visual identity of their live productions. For the ‘Run For Your Lives’ world tour, the band’s production and creative teams have once again pushed the boundaries to create a show worthy of this historic milestone. It is a privilege for us to contribute to a tour celebrating such a significant milestone in Iron Maiden’s history, and to support one of Britain’s most iconic bands as they take this production to fans around the world.

A Setlist Celebrating Iron Maiden’s Legacy

To mark the occasion, the 18-month tour features a setlist spanning the band’s remarkable career, including songs that haven’t been performed in North America in over 20 years, including: Run to the Hills, 2 Minutes to Midnight, and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. The popularity of Iron Maiden continues to grow, with Pollstar ranking the band as the 19th most popular touring artist of the millennium. Fifty years after forming, Iron Maiden continue to attract audiences across generations, cementing their position as one of the world’s greatest heavy metal bands.
