Get ready for year four of the M72 World Tour coming to Europe next spring and summer! Tickets go on sale Friday, 30 May, with presales beginning Tuesday, 27 May (more info below).

The production will feature the same unique stadium production in-the-round at midfield, with the Snake Pit in the center of the stage providing a complete 360° view of the show. We’re excited to continue the now-tradition of No Repeat Weekends and will also have a mix of some One Night Only shows. Pantera is returning for another M72 run with us, and we’re reuniting with our World Magnetic touring partner/WorldWired guest, Gojira. And we’re excited to welcome Knocked Loose and Avatar to the tour.

Frankfurt, Budapest, Dublin, and London will all feature No Repeat Weekend shows that will continue to offer a completely unique experience each night: two totally different set lists spanning our 40+ years with two different sets of support acts! Purchase a 2-Day ticket, and you won’t hear the same song twice. As you’ve come to expect, we’ll be sure to have lots of extracurricular events planned for you to hang with fellow Metallica fans on the day between shows.

Continuing with the new twist started in ’25, there will be eight One Night Only shows, including long-overdue stops in Athens (for the first time since 2010), Chorzów (for the first time since 2008), and Cardiff (for the first time since 1996!). We’ll also play single shows in Bucharest, Zurich, Berlin, Bologna, and Glasgow.

Enhanced Experiences ranging from access to a meet and greet, production and stage tour, and food and beverage in the Black Box Lounge to early entry into the venue and the aforementioned Snake Pit. The “I Disappear Ticket” is back and is the ultimate pass for the fan who wants to run away with us and attend every M72 2026 show in Europe! For more information about Enhanced Experiences and I Disappear Tickets, visit wearesuper.co/metallica. Travel packages will also be available for select locations, including hotel, ticket, and local transportation passes. Visit metallicatravel.com for all the info.

No Repeat Weekend 2-Day discounted tickets and One Night Only show tickets will go on sale on Friday, 30 May, at 10 AM local time. Fan Club presales start early on Tuesday, 27 May, with the first one at 9 AM local time. There will also be various other presales beginning later that day and throughout the week (check out the complete list for details).
