Metallica Adds Abu Dhabi and Bahrain to The M72 2025 World Tour


On December 6, Metallica will perform during the after-race concerts as part of the 2025 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on Yas Island, near Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. Three days earlier — on December 3 — the heavy metal giants will hit the stage for the first time ever in Bahrain at Beyon Al Dana Amphitheatre. Tickets to the show in Bahrain will be available via Beyon Al Dana Amphitheatre’s official website, at the link below, on Thursday, April 24 at 4 p.m. AST (2 p.m. BST / 9 a.m. EDT).

Tickets to the After-Race Concerts are exclusive to Abu Dhabi Grand Prix ticket holders. Metallica fans can purchase a ticket for the race and our show through Abu Dhabi GP. If you already have a ticket to the race, Golden Circle upgrades are also available now at www.abudhabigp.com.

 

The Grand Prix appearance will mark the third time Metallica has performed in Abu Dhabi. The band made its debut on Yas Island in 2011 and returned two years later.

 

David Powell, chief strategy and business development officer at Ethara, organizers of the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, said: “Metallica deliver life-changing shows. They are the perfect addition to the 2025 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and Yasalam offering. Saturday will be a day not to miss for F1 and rock fans alike.”

In 2023, Metallica returned to the Gulf for an appearance at Soundstorm in Saudi Arabia.
