Metallica to perform a grand concert at the 2025 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix!

This concert will not just be a separate performance, but will be part of the final chord of the large-scale M72 world tour dedicated to the band's latest album. In addition to the end of the tour, Metallica has planned several unique shows, and one of the most anticipated will take place under the starry sky of Abu Dhabi.

A real explosion of energy is coming! The audience will be able to enjoy the legendary hits that defined the face of modern heavy metal and made Metallica the most popular and successful band in this genre. The concert program will definitely feature immortal compositions such as "Master of Puppets", "Creeping Death" and "Enter Sandman", touching ballads "Fade to Black" and "The Unforgiven", as well as the cult "Nothing Else Matters".

The song "Nothing Else Matters" occupies a special place both in the band's repertoire and in the hearts of millions of fans around the world, including those who prefer other musical genres. This most quoted and performed Metallica song was written by James Hetfield as a deeply personal song (not even originally intended for the band!), but at the insistence of his colleagues, it was included on the famous “The Black Album” (1991). For more than three decades, it has remained one of the most important rock ballads of all time, and its live performance in Abu Dhabi promises to be one of the most emotional moments of the evening.

Metallica is a phenomenon without borders. The only band to have conquered every continent. Over 44 years, they have experienced a lot: ups and downs, the tragic death of bassist Cliff Burton, lineup changes, struggles with inner demons, the trials of fame and fortune. But they have survived, remaining true to their music and an army of devoted fans. Their lyrics remain sincere and honest, maintaining a direct connection with the audience. Metallica concerts are always sold out all over the world.

Don't miss your chance to witness one of the most spectacular performances of living metal legends against the backdrop of one of the most spectacular events in the world sporting calendar! Tickets for the Metallica concert at Etihad Park are available on our website. It will be an evening where the adrenaline of Formula 1 meets the unbridled energy of Metallica.
