Only New Jersey Concert Date Features Special Guest Alice Cooper

Newark, N.J. - Newark will need to turn up the volume when heavy metal stars Iron Maiden come to Prudential Center. Along with special guest Alice Cooper, the show on Monday, July 2, 2012 at 7 p.m. will mark the band's first appearance at the Rock, which is easily accessible by New Jersey Transit. This will also be Iron Maiden's only performance in New Jersey.

Following the massively successful Final Frontier World Tour in 2010-11, IRON MAIDEN revealed that the MAIDEN ENGLAND WORLD TOUR will closely mirror, in terms of production and content, the original 1988 concert video of the same name, shot on the ''Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son Tour.''

MAIDEN ENGLAND marks the third chapter in the History of Iron Maiden, a journey which began in 2004 with The Early Days DVD and subsequent 2005 Early Days Tour. Part Two followed in 2008 with the Live After Death DVD - the seminal 1984 concert recorded at Long Beach Arena (L.A) during the World Slavery Tour - and the band embarking on their ground-breaking Somewhere Back In Time World Tour 2008/9, which saw them play to over two million fans in almost 40 countries.

Tickets are $68.50, $78.50, $88.50 and go on sale to the public Saturday, March 3 at 10:00AM via www.ticketmaster.com, Charge by Phone (800-745-3000) or at any Ticketmaster retail outlet.

On the day of show, concert goers need to bring the credit card they used for the ticket purchase and a photo ID to the concert. Visit ticketmaster.com/paperless
