Maiden England is a live video by the band Iron Maiden during their Seventh Son of a Seventh Son world tour, which was dubbed 7th Tour of a 7th Tour.

It was recorded at the Birmingham, England NEC on 27 and 28 November 1988,[2] released on VHS in November 1989, followed by a limited VHS/CD edition in 1994. The CD in this package was missing two songs that were on the video ("Can I Play with Madness" and "Hallowed Be Thy Name"), due to space limitations.

It was directed and edited by Steve Harris, Iron Maiden founder and bassist.[3]

On 5 September 2007, Iron Maiden announced that a DVD-version of the concert would be released during the Somewhere Back in Time World Tour in 2008.[4] As of December 2011, further details are yet to be announced, although the band's manager, Rod Smallwood, has since confirmed that it will be released in the future, along with a DVD version of Donington Live 1992. [5]

On 15 February 2012, Iron Maiden announced that they will be undertaking the Maiden England World Tour from 2012-13, which will largely be based around the original video in setlist and stage design.[6]
