Iron Maiden: Eddie’s Dive Bar returns to Paris for a three-day run

The heavy metal sound of Iron Maiden is ringing out once again across Europe! This summer, the British band will crisscross numerous cities on the Continent as their Run For Your Lives World Tour is extended. What’s on the menu? Shows in Greece, Romania, Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, Austria, Norway, Spain, and Portugal. And in France? After Hellfest on Friday, June 19, Bruce Dickinson and his crew will play at Paris La Défense Arena on Monday, June 22, 2026.

As we await this unique Paris show that’s shaping up to be wildly intense, Iron Maiden has shared good news on its social media! This spring and summer, several tour cities will have the honour of hosting the Eddie’s Dive Bar. This pop-up bar offers fans a chance to connect right before the show. Opened last year, the pop-up bar serves, in addition to the famous Trooper beer, bottled Darkest Red wine and a small bites menu (pizza), plus exclusive merchandise with limited-edition items.

Iron Maiden says entry is free and open to everyone. If you didn’t manage to snag a ticket for the concert, this is the perfect chance to enjoy a lively, music-filled atmosphere among fellow fans. Note that Iron Maiden will not be in attendance at any event.
