BARRIO (BlabberMouth) – According to Billboard.com, tickets for IRON MAIDEN’s first concert in Colombia in 13 years were snapped up at a record rate for an international act.

Promoter Move Concerts said that all 42,000 tickets for the metal giants’ return to Bogota on November 24, 2024 sold out in 21 minutes.

“We all expected strong sales given the long wait since they last performed here, which was on March 20, 2011, but never in our wildest dreams did we think it would blow out in 21 minutes and smash sales records,” Alfredo Villaveces, managing director of Move Concerts Colombia, said in a press release. “And if we factor in the fact we went up so far ahead of the show date — something no other artist had done here — it is truly amazing.”

IRON MAIDEN last performed in the Colombian capital at Parque Simón Bolívar.

According to IQ Magazine, more than 95,000 tickets have already been sold for MAIDEN’s two dates in Santiago, Chile at the Estadio Nacional on November 27-28, 2024.
