“M72” season continues into 2027.

They’ll run through the Mid-West, then kick out to the East Coast for a show in Buffalo, New York. This particular leg of dates wraps June 19th at Salt Lake City, Utah’s Rice-Eccles Stadium. Notably, these are all one-show experiences for each city, rather than the run of two-date “No Repeat Weekends” ‘Tallica has been staging since the “M72 World Tour” launched in 2023. Joining them on all dates will be nu-daddies Limp Bizkit and recent European tourmates Avatar. Presales begin next Monday (September 21st) at 10 a.m. local time, and the general on-begins that Friday (September 25th) at 10 a.m. local. As previously reported, Metallica still have a number of upcoming U.S. tour dates in 2026.
