The unique two-hour show of Iron Maiden covered Sunday the second edition of the Hills of Rock festival. Heavy music fans in Plovdiv have attended the best concert in recent years. Bruce Dickinson, Steve Harris and the rest of the group did not hide their emotions from the crowd on their fourth visit to Bulgaria. Several thematic scenes have changed during the concert to immerse the audience in a different setting. The planes were flying, huge menacing dolls were coming up, fires were burning. The tumultuous Bruce Dickinson has changed dozens of reincarnations with different costumes. The 60-year-old singer did not stop running, jumping and climbing the stage like every time. It did not happen without a duel with swords when the talisman, the monster Eddie appeared.

Iron Maiden ignored their last 4 big albums of the new millennium and relied on the old clbadics of the '80s and early' 90s, which is why the public came. It all started with Aces High and has traditionally ended with Run To The Hills. Although they are big stars around the world, the musicians communicate with the audience all the time, and they showed why they were at the top for over 25 years. After the last chords, Bruce and Company thanked the fans for the big show. After being hidden behind the scenes, a huge fireworks fire began on the rowing base. Meanwhile, Maiden's team began disbadembling the stage equipment and scenery to quickly charge the plane that Bruce was going to fly to the next Iron Maiden stop
