Metallica’s highly anticipated M72 World Tour is set to hit Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium on June 6 and June 8, 2025, bringing with it a unique concert experience for fans. Each night will feature a completely different lineup of opening acts, with Limp Bizkit and Ice Nine Kills kicking off the first show, while Pantera and Suicidal Tendencies take the stage for the second.
Tickets for the two-night event go on sale Friday, September 27, at 10am. Fans eager to secure their spot can purchase a 2-Day Ticket, ensuring they experience the band’s promise of no repeated songs across the two performances. This means attendees will enjoy a unique setlist each night, with Metallica drawing from their extensive catalog spanning over 40 years of music.

The M72 World Tour, now in its third year, will kick off with 21 North American shows in April, May, and June, featuring the same innovative stadium production that has captivated three million fans worldwide. The tour will once again include the iconic mid-field in-the-round stage setup, complete with the Snake Pit at its center, providing a full 360° view of the performance.
In addition to the concerts, Metallica plans to host a variety of events for fans between the two shows, creating a full weekend of activities that celebrate the band’s legacy and community. This unique concert experience continues the band’s tradition of offering something special for their dedicated followers, making each stop on the tour an unforgettable event.
Ticket sales will help support charitable causes
As always, a portion of proceeds from every ticket sold will go to local charities via the band’s foundation, All Within My Hands. Established in 2017 as a way to give back to communities that have supported Metallica over the years, All Within My Hands has raised over $15 million, providing $8.2 million in grants to career and technical education programs, including the ground-breaking Metallica Scholars Initiative, now in its sixth year, over $3.6 million to combat food insecurity, and more than $3.5 million to disaster relief efforts.
