The tour launches in Hartford, Conn., October 4, followed by gigs in Boston, Montreal, Toronto and more. The visit looks to wrap with a lone West Coast date at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Irvine, Calif., October 21.

The upcoming shows will be Iron Maiden’s first U.S. dates since last year’s Ozzfest, which ended in a well-publicized spat between the band and organizer Sharon Osbourne.

Iron Maiden’s 14th studio album, A Matter Of Life And Death, is set for release September 5.

Fellow British band Bullet For My Valentine is currently on the Vans Warped Tour and will headline several club dates before hooking up with Maiden.
