Metallica has confirmed that its record-breaking M72 World Tour will be coming to New Zealand in November of 2025.

Presented by The Rock, the M72 World Tour will perform in Auckland at Eden Park.

The show will feature Metallica performing at the end of each stadium and will include the infamous Snake Pit extending from the front of the stage. There will be a full complement of Enhanced Experiences available, ranging from access to a meet and greet, production and stage tour, food and beverage in the “Black Box” lounge, early entry into the venue, and the aforementioned Snake Pit. The very popular “I Disappear Ticket” will also be available, which enables fans to attend to all six shows in Australia and New Zealand, and travel packages including tickets and hotel will be available in four of the six cities.

Support on M72’s 2025 New Zealand show will come from Evanescence and Suicidal Tendencies.
