Mystic Lake Amphitheater's Lineup Unveiled: 5 Seconds of Summer and Iron Maiden to Rock the Venue in 2026

A slew of high-profile concerts is set to descend upon Mystic Lake Amphitheater next year, marking the outdoor venue's inaugural season. The first two acts to be announced will be Australian pop-rockers 5 Seconds of Summer and metal behemoths Iron Maiden.

Tickets for 5 Seconds of Summer's July 22 show went on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, with fans eager to secure their spot for what promises to be an energetic performance from the band behind hits like "She Looks So Perfect" and "Youngblood." Meanwhile, Iron Maiden's September 19 date will see the metal legends take the stage alongside opener Megadeth, sparking excitement among fans of the genre.

The amphitheater, situated within the Canterbury Commons entertainment district in Shakopee, is set to host over 30 concerts annually and create a whopping 700 permanent jobs. Developed by Swervo Development Corp., the venue promises to become a major hub for live music events, building on their success with the Armory and Uptown Theater in Minneapolis.

5 Seconds of Summer's Rise to Fame
Formed in Australia in 2011, the band initially gained traction via YouTube before embarking on a world tour with One Direction in 2013. Their unique blend of pop and rock resonated with fans worldwide, propelling them to the top of the Billboard charts. The band has since released several successful albums, including their latest release "Everyone's a Star," due out this November.

Iron Maiden's Legacy
The British metal legends have been making waves in the music scene for over four decades. With their self-titled 1980 debut album reaching No. 4 on the British charts, Iron Maiden went on to achieve significant success with albums like "The Number of the Beast" and "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son." The band's most recent tour saw them perform at the former Xcel Energy Center in Minneapolis, marking their third appearance at the venue.

As more shows are announced for Mystic Lake Amphitheater, fans can expect an exciting lineup of music events to unfold. With 5 Seconds of Summer and Iron Maiden setting the tone, it's clear that this outdoor venue is ready to become a premier destination for live music enthusiasts in the Midwest.

🤔 You know what's interesting about these big-name concerts coming up? It makes me think about how our lives are just like a soundtrack, you feel? We're all just trying to find our place in the world and make some noise, whether it's through music, relationships or just living life. And these artists, they're just like us, trying to express themselves and connect with others. 5 Seconds of Summer's pop-rock vibes and Iron Maiden's metal anthems might be different on the surface, but at the end of the day, we're all just looking for that same thing: connection and meaning.

And have you ever noticed how some venues, like Mystic Lake Amphitheater, are more than just a place to watch concerts? They become a part of our lives, a gathering spot where people come together to experience something bigger than themselves. It's not just about the music; it's about the community, the memories we make and the emotions we share with others. That's what makes these big-name concerts so special – they're not just events, but experiences that bring us closer to each other. 💖

🤩 So I'm thinking Mystic Lake Amphitheater is gonna be HUGE in 2026! 🌳 First off, having 5 Seconds of Summer and Iron Maiden on the lineup is awesome - those guys know how to bring the energy! 💥 And can you imagine a metal show with Megadeth? That's some serious headbanging action ⚡️! But what I'm really stoked about is all the jobs that are gonna be created - 700 permanent gigs? That's a game-changer for the local economy 📈.

I'm still on the fence about this Mystic Lake Amphitheater thing 🤔. I mean, 30 concerts a year? That sounds like a lot of noise pollution to me 🎶. And what's up with Iron Maiden being the second act announced? Don't get me wrong, they're legends and all, but 5 Seconds of Summer isn't exactly some up-and-coming band, you know? They've been around since 2011 and have had their fair share of hits... I'm not buying the whole "new amphitheater" vibe just yet. Where's the evidence that this place is going to be anything special? 💸 Can we get a source on those job numbers too? Like, how did they come up with that number? 📊
 
omg i'm so hyped for these shows 🤩 5SOS is one of my fave bands ever! i've seen them live before and they're literally the best live performers, their energy is infectious ❤️ I've been listening to their new album nonstop, it's like they've perfected their pop-rock sound. And can you believe Iron Maiden is coming too? 🤘 they're legends for a reason, their music is so iconic and powerful, i've heard their live shows are just incredible. 700 permanent jobs at the amphitheater sounds amazing, it's great to see a venue that's not only gonna rock but also bring economic growth to the area 💪
