Speaker Biography
Iron Maiden singer & entrepreneur Bruce Dickinson is considered one of the world’s most storied musicians. Aside from decades spent delivering high-octane performances with his larger-than-life persona in IRON MAIDEN, Bruce has lived an extraordinary off-stage existence too. A true polymath, his accomplishments include: pilot and airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, beer brewer, motivational speaker, film scriptwriter, twice-published novelist and Sunday Times best-selling author, radio presenter, TV actor, sports commentator and international fencer… to name but a few.
In his presentations, there’s plenty to be entertained by, with a cornucopia of fascinating tales and derring-do exploits, all delivered by Bruce with characteristically infectious enthusiasm and wry wit.
Bruce delivers world-class speeches to corporations around the globe. He enjoys the thrill of creativity and refreshes this spark in audiences across a range of business topics. With a captivating style, humour and wisdom, Bruce’s presentations entertain and motivate audiences.
Bruce was a pilot and Marketing Director for Astraeus Airlines, a company which leased aircraft to other carriers. He is the man behind Cardiff Aviation, which specializes in heavy maintenance of Airbus and Boeing commercial aircraft and the training of pilots. Bruce hasn’t stopped flying Boeing 757s, and in 2016 flew the band around the globe on their “Book of Souls” world tour in their own 747.
In 2017 Bruce became Vice-Chairman of Pouncer, a design of drone designed to aid famine relief around the globe.
In 2022, he’ll be touring North America for an unforgettable spoken-word tour. Split into two parts, the first section of the show sees Bruce taking a humorous and often satirical look at the world from his own very personal perspective, treating the audience to private insights into his drive and ambition, peppered with plenty of MAIDEN anecdotes, and a myriad of other experiences encompassing not just the giddy heights but also the extreme lows, as told first-hand in his inimitable anarchic style, punctuated with photographs, videos and sometimes even erupting into song a-capella, to illustrate a point.
The final section of the evening is devoted entirely to the aforementioned question-and-answer session, with the opportunity to pose questions on any subject whatsoever. As Bruce’s answers will all be completely improvised — the more left-field and quirky the question, the more interesting and compelling the response is likely to be.
