Metallica announce 21-date M72 North America tour, including Sick New World 2025

Metallica’s epic M72 run is extending into next summer, with the band bringing along Limp Bizkit, Ice Nine Kills, Pantera and Suicidal Tendencies…

Metallica have just announced a brand-new 21-date M72 tour.

The band’s triumphant 72 Seasons-era run is extending into next summer now, with Pantera, Limp Bizkit, Suicidal Tendencies and Ice Nine Kills all joining various dates in North America.

Interestingly, this whole run will actually kick off in Las Vegas at Sick New World fest (so perhaps that full line-up is being announced soon?), and they’ll also be headlining Columbus, Ohio’s Sonic Temple along the way. Elsewhere, there’s just a bucket-load of huge stadiums throughout – including Nashville for the first time in five years, and Tampa for the first time in 15 years. There’s also going to be some special hometown dates, with Metallica headlining Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara on June 20 and 22.

In amongst all this rad news, Metallica have confirmed they will be returning to Australia and New Zealand as part of M72 2025 – so watch this space…
