Iron Maiden Bring Their Run For Your Lives Tour To AAMI Park Tonight, Friday, November 13, With Megadeth Joining Them As Special Guests. Here’s What To Know Before Heading In.
Melbourne gets a sizeable double bill tonight. Iron Maiden’s 50th-anniversary tour revisits the band’s first nine albums, while Megadeth arrive as part of their farewell world tour.
As announced earlier this year, this run also marks Maiden’s first time headlining stadiums in Melbourne and Sydney. If you’re going to AAMI Park, there’s plenty to sort before Bruce Dickinson takes the stage, particularly if you want to catch Megadeth’s full set.
Below are the confirmed running times, where to check tickets, transport advice and both bands’ reported setlists from Adelaide.

Iron Maiden Melbourne Tickets
Check Ticketek’s official tour listing for current Melbourne ticket availability and prices.
Availability can change, so check the actual ticket selection rather than assuming a section is still on sale. Ticketek says tickets have been unlocked in the app. Have yours ready before you reach the gates.
How To Get To AAMI Park
Trains And Trams
Transport Victoria has published an event travel guide for tonight’s show, with extra metropolitan trains scheduled before and after the concert.
Additional services are listed for Mernda, Eltham, Ringwood, Glen Waverley, Frankston, Sandringham, Werribee, Craigieburn and Batman. Check the official guide for the service that matches your trip.
AAMI Park’s transport guide lists Richmond, Jolimont, Flinders Street and Town Hall as nearby stations. Choose the one that suits your line and allow time to walk to your gate.
For tram passengers, Route 70 runs between Flinders Street/Elizabeth Street, stop 4, and MCG/John Cain Arena, stop 7C.
Regional trains and coaches will operate to their normal timetables from Southern Cross. If you’re coming from outside Melbourne, work out your return connection before you leave home.
Check Transport Victoria’s disruptions page before travelling, too. Extra concert services don’t necessarily mean your entire route is unaffected by other changes.
Parking, Taxis And Rideshare
Driving? AAMI Park warns of heavy traffic with multiple events in the precinct. Eastern Plaza parking bookings close at midnight the night before, so advance booking for tonight has closed. Drive-up parking is subject to availability. The car park entrance is Entrance D on Olympic Boulevard.
The rideshare pick-up and drop-off point is outside John Cain Arena on Olympic Boulevard. The venue asks you to reach the pick-up point before ordering your car. For taxis, the rank is next to Melbourne Park Oval on Olympic Boulevard.
Accessible Drop-Off And Pick-Up
Guests with reduced mobility can be dropped off or collected at Eastern Plaza Car Park, via Entrance D on Olympic Boulevard. The venue allows 20 minutes for drop-off or pick-up before parking charges may apply. The accessible bays in front of John Cain Arena are another drop-off and pick-up option.
What Can You Bring Into AAMI Park?
Check the venue’s visitor information before packing. The essentials are:
- Bags: A4 size or smaller. Larger bags are permitted for medical requirements and will be inspected by security.
- Water: bottles must be soft plastic and no larger than 750ml.
- Payments: retail outlets are cashless, so bring a credit or debit card.
- Weather: AAMI Park is an open-air venue. Dress for an outdoor evening and check the forecast before leaving.
Allow time for entry and security checks, especially if you want to be inside for the beginning of Megadeth’s set.
