After months of rumors, the news Metallica fans have been waiting for finally came on Wednesday morning (Feb. 25): the iconic metal band is coming to Las Vegas’ Sphere. Metallica is slated to debut its Life Burns Faster residency at the high-tech venue during an eight-show run in October that will continue the No Repeat Weekend tradition they began with the 2023 launch of their M72 world tour.
That means that no songs will be repeated on each Thursday and Saturday throughout the course of the run. Two-night No Repeat Weekend tickets and single-night tickets will go on sale on March 6 at 1 p.m. ET; fans can register for tickets and get further information about presales, enhanced experiences and travel packages here.
“About 12 seconds into the opening night of Sphere with U2 back in ‘23, I thought ‘We have to do this, it’s completely uncharted territory!,'” Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich said in a statement. “This residency gives us another chance to reinvent how we interact with our fans in a live setting. We are beyond excited to share this with the world in six months time, and way f–kin’ psyched to go next level!”
Metallica’s three-year running M72 world tour has played to more than four million fans across Europe, North America, the Pacific Rim and the Middle East since its April 27 kick-off in Amsterdam. The journey will continue this year on May 9 when the band plays at the Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece as part of another run of European shows slated to run through a July 5 gig at London Stadium in London, England.
The dates for Metallica’s Sphere run are: Oct. 1 & 3, Oct. 15 & 17, Oct. 22 & 24 and Oct. 29 & 31.
The immersive venue with the world’s highest resolution LED display that wraps up, over and around the audience opened in Sept. 2023 with a residency by U2 and has so far hosted a range of pop, rock, country and dance acts including Phish, Dead & Company, the Eagles, Anyma, Kenny Chesney, the Backstreet Boys, Chase & Status and the Zac Brown Band. Upcoming bookings include a 9-show run by Illenium in March, 9 more shows from Phish in April and early May, an 18-gig run by the reunited No Doubt in May and June and seven shows from Carín León in September. Metallica will be the first hard rock/metal band to play the venue.
In addition, the Sphere just announced its first live boxing match, an anticipated rematch between Floyd “Money” Mayweather Jr. and Manny “Pac-Man” Pacquiao, slated to take place on Sept. 19 and air live on Netflix. The bout will be a sequel to the pair’s somewhat underwhelming 2015 “Fight of the Century,” during which Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs) bested Pacquiao (6-8-3, 39 KOs) in a unanimous decision.
