What Is Metallica’s 2027 US Tour?
Metallica’s 2027 US outing is an extension of the band’s long-running “M72 World Tour” launched way back in 2023 in support of their latest album, 72 Seasons. The enormously successful run appeared to wrap up this past July, but alas, the legendary metal act is taking the tour into a fifth year in 2027.
Unlike most of the previous “M72” dates that included “No Repeat Weekends” over two nights in a single city, the 2027 dates feature single shows in each city.
Who Is Supporting Metallica on Their 2027 US Tour?
Nu-metal veterans Limp Bizkit and the theatrical Swedish metal band Avatar are supporting all shows on the 2027 US outing.
