Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson revealed what is next for the band following the completion of its tour's European leg.

Fans have been getting the most from Iron Maiden's album in the band's recent shows as the members offered previously unperformed songs to the attendees. The rock icon still has a long way to go, but Dickinson recently shared what the future holds for them and their supporters.

What's Next for Iron Maiden?

Iron Maiden is set to headline the Power Trip Festival along with Metallica, Tool, AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, and Judas Priest - the latter replaced Ozzy Osbourne in the original lineup.

In a "Thank You" video on YouTube, Dickinson marked the end of Iron Maiden's 35-show in Europe. Although the band would take a little break, he promised to return with more exciting stuff soon.

After the Power Trip Festival, Iron Maiden's fans should reportedly prepare themselves for something exciting.

"Something else will happen," he continued. "I can't tell you what. But you'll be happy."

Now, the public starts speculating whether it would be a new album or an extension of the tour. It remains unknown when Iron Maiden will drop the full details of its plans.

Iron Maiden Shock: Drummer Nicko McBrain Reveals Worrying News

Prior to the release of Dickinson's Thank You message, his bandmate and drummer Nicko McBrain revealed in a statement and video message on Iron Maiden's website saying that he suffered a stroke in January.

He added that he was temporarily paralyzed on the right side but mostly recovered from it.

"After 10 weeks of intense therapy, it was almost time to start rehearsals for our tour," he said. "I feel it's important to let you know about this now instead of earlier as I was mainly concerned with doing my job and concentrating on getting back to 100% fitness."

In response to the update, Iron Maiden's manager Rod Smallwood shared how the band was not sure if McBrain would be able to physically learn their "new and musically very complex set."

The drummer previously battled with stage 1 laryngeal cancer and underwent surgery to remove the affected part.
