Iron Maiden is releasing a new visual book titled Infinite Dreams, chronicling the band’s 50-year career.
Expected to land in autumn 2025, the hardback book will be packed with images of iconic album and single artworks, the band’s instruments past and present, stage props, hand-written lyrics and archival artefacts. There will also be photographs taken of the band, including some that were previously unseen.
The upcoming Iron Maiden book will contain a foreword by bassist Steve Harris and an afterword by frontman Bruce Dickinson.
“I’ve been pleasantly surprised at some of the stuff that I’ve managed to unearth for this book,” said Harris, according to Kerrang!. “I knew I had kept a lot of things from the early days but they have lasted really well and the photography has brought them back to life. I hope the fans are going to love looking at all the stuff presented like this! It’s the right time to bring it all together for part of our 50th celebrations.”
Infinite Dreams, Iron Maiden’s upcoming book, is available for pre-order here.

Iron Maiden most recently released the album ‘Senjutsu’ in 2021. The album scored a four-star review, with Rhys Buchanan writing for NME: “Senjutsu’ is an instant classic in Iron Maiden’s 41-year journey.
“The powerhouse metal sound that’s earned them a religious following in every far-flung corner of the globe remains firm. But here, they take things further; ultimately letting imaginations run wild in an album that’s more confident and idea-packed than ever before.”
