Heavy metal fans in Australia are gearing up for an electrifying experience as Metallica, the iconic band, announces their return to the country after almost a decade. The legendary group, known for their hard rock anthems, is set to embark on their M72 world tour, making stops in major cities like Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Sydney starting in November 2025.
With a lineup that includes the powerhouse performances of Evanescence and Suicidal Tendencies, Metallica’s upcoming tour promises to deliver a high-octane musical experience for fans across the continent. The anticipation is palpable as fans eagerly await the chance to witness live renditions of classic hits like “Master of Puppets” and “Enter Sandman,” set to reverberate through the stadiums.
The tour marks a significant moment for Australian fans, as it will be Metallica’s first stadium tour in the country since their appearance at the 2013 Soundwave festival. The band’s return comes after a hiatus caused by lead singer James Hetfield’s temporary absence due to entering a rehabilitation facility, leading to the cancellation of their previous stadium tour in 2020.
The excitement surrounding Metallica’s return is further amplified by the inclusion of the infamous Snake Pit, a fan-favorite feature that allows concert-goers to get up close and personal with the band, creating an immersive and unforgettable experience for attendees. This unique offering adds an extra layer of excitement to an already highly-anticipated event.
Since the release of their latest album “72 Seasons,” Metallica has been on a global tour that commenced in April 2023, captivating audiences worldwide with their electrifying performances and timeless music. The upcoming shows in Australia and New Zealand are expected to draw massive crowds, solidifying the band’s status as one of the most enduring and influential acts in the heavy metal genre.
As fans eagerly await the start of ticket presales for the tour, the buzz surrounding Metallica’s return to Australian stadiums continues to grow. The band’s enduring appeal and musical legacy make this tour a must-see event for both die-hard fans and newcomers alike, promising an unforgettable experience that will resonate long after the final chords have faded.
With Metallica’s impending arrival on Australian shores, the heavy metal scene in the country is set to receive a significant boost, further cementing the band’s status as legends of the genre. The M72 world tour represents a homecoming of sorts for the band, as they prepare to unleash their signature brand of high-energy rock on eager audiences across the continent.
