Metallica's 2026 UK tour

Metallica

Metallica have announced a 16-date European stadium tour for summer 2026, including four huge UK concerts.

Extending their blockbuster M72 World Tour into a fourth year, the UK opens with standalone concerts at Glasgow Hampden Park on Thursday 25th June and Cardiff Principality Stadium on Sunday 28th June, before Metallica perform two colossal shows at London Stadium on Friday 3rd and Sunday 5th July.

All concerts will be performed In The Round, and Metallica will be bringing over their jaw-dropping full production to all dates.

The No Repeat Weekend shows in London will feature two completely different setlists over two nights, and two different support bills.

Pantera and Avatar play Sunday in London, while Gojira and Knocked Loose open proceedings on Friday in London.

Metallica’s Glasgow and Cardiff gigs will both boast Gojira and Knocked Loose as the support acts.

Two-night tickets for Metallica’s newly announced No Repeat Weekends and tickets for the single-night engagements go on sale at 10am on Friday 30th May.
