The legendary Metallica will conquer Abu Dhabi again!

The Abu Dhabi concert will be part of the global M72 tour, organized in celebration of the release of their eleventh studio album, "72 Seasons," which has already won critical acclaim and earned the band a Grammy Award. The M72 tour features an innovative approach: a stage designed as a giant ring is located in the center of the venue, with the famous "Snake Pit" area for dedicated fans located right at its center. This design allows the audience to enjoy a unique 360-degree view, creating an atmosphere of complete immersion and unity with the performers.

Thousands of spectators will gather at the largest outdoor concert venue in the region, Etihad Park, to be part of this unforgettable event. The concert promises to be special, with the roaring engines of Formula 1 and the powerful energy of heavy metal. Fans will be able to enjoy classic hits such as "Enter Sandman," "Master of Puppets," and "Nothing Else Matters," as well as new compositions.

A Metallica performance is more than just a post-race concert; it is a large-scale event in itself, attracting not only motorsports enthusiasts but also connoisseurs of high-quality heavy music from around the world to Abu Dhabi. The legendary band's return to the Yasalam After-Race Concerts stage after a long break promises an evening filled with drive, powerful sound, and unforgettable emotions. Tickets for the Metallica concert at Etihad Park are available for purchase on our website.
