The mighty Metallica are set to take over Las Vegas’ futuristic Sphere venue with a series of “No Repeat Weekend” performances from October 2026 through March 2027
Like they’ve been doing on their ongoing “M72 World Tour,” the legendary metal band will play unique shows on Thursdays and Saturdays, totaling 24 performances. Specifically, no songs will be repeated between the Thursday and Saturday setlists.
Tickets have sold out, but are available via Ticketmaster Verified Resale or StubHub. Travel packages are available via Vibee.
Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich stated, “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!’ 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 fuckin’ psyched to go next level!”
A press release adds the following description:
“The band’s Sphere residency will see live staples and surprises spanning the Metallica catalog enhanced by the venue’s immersive technologies that will allow fans to experience the sound and fury of the band’s live performance in new experiential dimensions. Whether you’ve seen Metallica from the upper reaches of a stadium or arena, at an intimate club or theater gig or from the famed Snake Pit surrounded by the 360-degree M72 stage, Sphere’s technology, including the world’s highest resolution LED display that wraps up, over and around the audience; Sphere Immersive Sound, which delivers audio with unmatched clarity and precision to every guest; and multi-sensory 4D technology, will present a wholly unique and entirely new Metallica experience for all who attend — including James, Lars, Kirk and Robert.”
