Metallica will continue on the road in 2026 promoting their latest album, 72 Seasons (2023), and, of course, celebrating their 45th anniversary. From May to July, the band has scheduled dates in Greece, Romania, Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Hungary, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England. More dates may be added, as so far only European shows have been announced. It is also possible that the band could finally return to South America, since they have not visited the region in the past three years. The band is still formed by James Hetfield (Vocals and guitar), Kirk Hammett (Guitar), Rob Trujillo (Bass) and Lars Ulrich (Drums).

The documentary was directed by Jonas Åkerlund, and an official statement from the band explained the feature, saying: "As we first announced in the spring, 'Metallica Saved My Life' is all about you. The fans who have supported each other through highs, lows, trials, and triumphs for over four decades. And yeah, we’re in it a little bit too. Many of youwere able to see the film in M72 cities this summer, look for a full release early next year." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8wIBed-DBcThe post Metallica 2026 tour dates appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.
