Metalheads, this one's for you. It's time to unleash your inner rock star because the kings of metal, Metallica, are coming to London. The M72 World Tour will take place on 3 and 5 July 2026 at the London Stadium in Stratford. 

The M72 World Tour has set itself apart by having a unique set list each night. The group calls it "no repeat weekends," and encourages people to attend the concert on both nights. The European tour starts on 9 May 2026 in Athens, Greece, and culminates on 5 July 2026 in London, United Kingdom.
