Heavy metal legends Metallica have just announced the M72 World Tour for 2026, bringing two dates in the UK at the London Stadium on July 3 and July 5. The trek will span 9 countries across Europe and the UK next spring and summer for a total of 16 shows, marking a highly anticipated return to the European stage. The band is currently on tour in North America. French metal visionaries Gojira and American hardcore punk band Knocked Loose will be supporting on selected dates.
‘‘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!’’ revealed the band on their website. ‘‘Each stadium show offers a variety of 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 very popular “I Disappear Ticket” is back and is the ultimate pass for the fan who wants to run away with us for all the shows. Grab an I Disappear Ticket and attend every M72 2026 show in Europe’’
As usual, the band will also donate a portion of each ticket sold to local charities through the band’s foundation, All Within My Hands.
