Abu Dhabi, await the return of the titans: Metallica concert announced!

The Abu Dhabi concert will be part of the M72 world tour, dedicated to the release of the band's eleventh album, "72 Seasons." The album has already won critical acclaim and earned the band a Grammy Award. The M72 tour stands out for its unique format: a giant ring-shaped stage is located in the center of the venue, and the legendary "Snake Pit" – a special area for the most devoted fans – is located right in its center. This arrangement allows the audience to enjoy a 360-degree view, creating an inimitable sense of presence and unity with the musicians.

For the tens of thousands of fans who will gather at the largest outdoor concert venue in the region, Etihad Park, this evening promises to be unforgettable. The event is remarkable for combining the roar of Formula 1 engines with the powerful energy of heavy metal. Spectators will be able to enjoy classic hits such as "Enter Sandman," "Master of Puppets," and "Nothing Else Matters," as well as the band's new works.

Metallica's performance is more than just a post-race concert; it's a full-fledged event in its own right, attracting not only motorsports enthusiasts but also connoisseurs of high-quality hard rock from around the world to Abu Dhabi. The legendary band's return to the Yasalam After-Race Concerts stage after a long break promises to fill the evening with energy, powerful sound, and unforgettable emotions. Tickets for the Metallica concert at Etihad Park are available for purchase on our website.
