This tour utilized two distinct setlists. The initial setlist, used for the American leg, featured five distinct segments: Iron Maiden; Slut Pop; Garden; Turn Off the Light; and Blizzard. This was followed by an encore.

The European leg adopted a shorter setlist with four segments and an encore. The "Garden" and "Turn Off the Light" segments were removed. The "Slut Pop" segment was revised to include songs from both the original album and the newly released "Slut Pop Miami". A new third act, titled "Problématique", was added to showcase material from the previously-shelved album of the same name. Finally, a new fourth act titled "The Hits" incorporated early singles from Era 1 and Clarity, alongside fan favorites popularized on social media platforms like Twitter and TikTok and television shows such as The Summer I Turned Pretty ("Can't Do Better").
