British heavy metal legends IRON MAIDEN will perform at the Terra Vibe Park in Athens, Greece on Saturday, August 2, 2008.
Commented bassist Steve Harris: "This is a great venue to play. We played there back in 2005 and I remember it being unbearably hot but the fans were just wild and gave us a fantastic reception. I have to say that fans in Greece are as loud and responsive as any anywhere in the world. That's the major reason why we have always tried hard to have Greece in out tour itinery although it can be tough geographically!! We also enjoy Athens culturally and we have all made more than one visit to the Acropolis and other beautiful relics. And the food is terrific!!"
The stage of Terra Vibe Park — one of the largest ones in Europe — impressive, visible from all angles and able to lift 130 tons of equipment, will be perfect to host all the elements of the great show.
Tickets go on sale to the public at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, December 18, but members of the IRON MAIDEN fan club will get special and exclusive first access to purchase tickets on Monday, December 17.
