Metallica to rock the 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix!

The last time Metallica played Abu Dhabi was in 2013, and it was a landmark show for fans everywhere. Their first appearance at Yas in 2011 laid the foundation for a devoted fan base in the region. More than a decade later, their return is a treat for those who have been waiting for this moment.

The concert takes place during one of the most exciting stages of the "royal race". The energy of victories on the track intertwines with the power of metal, creating a unique combination of sporting adrenaline and musical excitement. This is not just a performance - it is the culmination of a race weekend.

Metallica brings with them the epic M72 tour, which has already conquered stadiums around the world. You can expect spectacular pyrotechnic effects, laser shows, huge LED screens and stage structures specially created for large venues. The concert will feature everyone's favorite hits: from 80s classics ("Master of Puppets", "Enter Sandman", "One", "Seek & Destroy") to 90s masterpieces ("Nothing Else Matters", "Sad But True"), as well as new tracks from the album "72 Seasons" (2023), which won a Grammy Award for Best Metal Album in 2024. The unrivaled stage charisma of James Hetfield, the virtuoso playing of Kirk Hammett, the powerful bass of Robert Trujillo and the incredible energy of Lars Ulrich will be the main components of this show! The whole weekend will be filled with music:

Tickets to the Metallica concert at Etihad Park are not just part of the F1 program. This is an epic event that brings together legends of speed and rock in one of the iconic arenas under the Abu Dhabi sky. It is the return of the kings of metal to the place where their talent and energy create real magic.
