Iron Maiden are very pleased to announce they will be performing at the Assen TT Race Track in Assen, Holland on Saturday 16th August as part of their Somewhere Back In Time World Tour 2008. This is the first time any such music event has been staged as the famous motorcycling rack track which regularly hosts the World superbike championships and TT races.

Steve Harris says “As we’ve said throughout the announcements for this tour it’s always exciting for us to play somewhere brand new and to be the first ever music artist to play at this prestigious venue is fantastic. We always get to Holland as it does have great memories for us over the years way back to the beginning and our first ever ventures out of the UK.”

We have a short pre-sale on Thursday and Friday for fanclub members – check the FC News.

Tickets go on-sale to the general public at 10am on Saturday 26th Jan via http://www.livenation.nl/iron_maiden
