Metallica fans have been given a second chance at securing tickets for the M72 UK Tour after a second batch of tickets dropped.
In case you missed it, the LA hitmakers are bringing their legendary run to this side of the pond for the first time in two years.
It comes after the rockers were praised for 'saving' Belgium's Tomorrowland festival by lending parts of their set after the main stage went up in flames.
The heavy metal quartet will perform six shows in the UK and Ireland next summer- and due to overwhelming demand, Metallica have added extra tickets to their London Stadium shows.
A statement announcing the news reads: 'If you can’t join Metallica for a full No Repeat Weekend - two nights featuring two completely unique set lists - don’t miss your chance to grab your single-day ticket. Limited inventory available.'
So, when will the extra tickets be released, and how much do they cost? Scroll down now to find out everything you need to know about Metallica's M72 2026 Tour.
