Metallica will rock U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis for two nights in August 2024. The band released the dates for its M72 World Tour, kicking off in Amsterdam in April 2023.

Metallica's tour will feature a two-night stop in all the cities on the tour. The band also announced the set lists and support lineups for both nights will be completely different. Two-night tickets will go on sale December 2. The Minneapolis dates are August 16 and August 18 of 2024.

The M72 tour will feature a in-the-round stage design that relocates the Metallica Snake Pit to center stage, as well discounted tickets for fans under 16 years of age

Ticket sales benefit

A portion of proceeds from every ticket sold will go to the band’s All Within My Hands foundation, which provides grants to career and technical education programs in the U.S., combats food insecurity, and gives to disaster relief efforts worldwide.
