Metallica tour coming to MetLife Stadium
NEW YORK - Metallica will rock MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. for two nights in August 2023. The band released the dates for its M72 World Tour, kicking off in Amsterdam in April 2023.
Metallica's tour will feature a two-night stop in all the cities on the tour. The band also announced the set lists and support lineups for both nights will be completely different. Two-night tickets will go on sale on December 2. The New Jersey dates are August 4 and August 6 of 2023.
The M72 tour will feature an in-the-round stage design that relocates the Metallica Snake Pit to center stage, as well as discounted tickets for fans under 16 years of age.
Metallica ticket sales benefit
A portion of proceeds from every ticket sold will go to the band’s All Within My Hands foundation, which provides grants to career and technical education programs in the U.S., combats food insecurity, and gives to disaster relief efforts worldwide.
