Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris spoke about the setlist in the press statement regarding the tour. He said:
"Following the release of our latest album, 'Senjutsu,' we updated the current 'Legacy of the Beast Tour' a little by opening the show with the first three songs from it, with the Japanese Palace stage set. It doesn't make sense to repeat this for a 'Senjutsu' album tour, we considered other options and decided to revisit 'Somewhere In Time,' which was not included in the various retrospective history tours we've played over the years.”
The band is currently on the North American leg of the tour. The current North American leg of Iron Maiden's Legacy of the Beast tour will conclude on October 27 in Tampa, Florida.
The tour will have spanned over 139 shows in 33 countries and will sell over three million tickets by the time it concludes, as it began in 2018.
