MUSIC

Iron Maiden

Iron Maiden tunes are like heavy metal history lessons, epic jams about epic times, referencing everything from the reign of Alexander the Great to the “Rime of the Ancient Mariner.” On this tour, the band is blending classic cuts with selections from its latest album, “Senjutsu,” Maiden’s 17th record and one of its most ambitious yet, with a trio of tunes clocking in at over 10 minutes. See Iron Maiden at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at Michelob Ultra Arena. Resale tickets are available at axs.com.

Reggae Rise Up

To borrow a line from renowned partier Clark Griswold, prepare to have so much fun that you’ll need plastic surgery to remove the smile from your face when Vegas’ biggest annual reggae fest returns.
