The year will end with a bang: Metallica in Abu Dhabi on December 6
The Abu Dhabi concert will be part of the global M72 tour, celebrating the release of their eleventh studio album, "72 Seasons," which has already earned the band critical acclaim and a Grammy Award. The M72 tour is distinguished by its innovative approach: the stage is designed as a giant ring and placed in the center of the venue, with the iconic "Snake Pit," reserved for the most devoted fans, located right in the center of this circle. This arrangement provides 360-degree views, creating a unique atmosphere of presence and unity with the artists.
For the thousands of spectators gathered at Etihad Park—the largest outdoor concert arena in the region—this promises to be an evening to remember. This event is unique in that it combines the roar of Formula 1 engines with the powerful energy of heavy metal. Guests will be able to enjoy legendary hits that have become anthems for generations, such as "Enter Sandman," "Master of Puppets," and "Nothing Else Matters," as well as new tracks.
Metallica's performance is more than just a post-race concert; it is a grand event in its own right, attracting not only motorsports enthusiasts but also fans of high-quality hard rock from around the world to Abu Dhabi. The return of these rock legends to the Yasalam After-Race Concerts stage after a long break promises to fill the evening with drive, powerful sound, and unforgettable emotions.
