Metallica Finalizes 24-Show Sphere Residency, Declares Las Vegas Run ‘Maxed Out’

High demand set the final slate as sales opened, with Ticketmaster citing a blocked attack during queues.

Overview

  • Four newly added concerts on March 4, 6, 11 and 13, 2027 bring the Sphere engagement to 24 dates spanning October 2026 through March 2027.
  • The band says the expansion is final, confirming the “Life Burns Faster” run is now set with no further additions.
  • Each Thursday/Saturday pairing follows Metallica’s No Repeat Weekend format, delivering different setlists across the residency.
  • Fan‑club and artist presales preceded a staggered public on‑sale on March 6, as fans reported long queues and soaring resale prices, with official channels warning against scams and directing buyers to Ticketmaster, Vibee, Tixr and Superfan.
  • The production leverages Sphere’s wraparound LED, immersive sound and 4D effects, and is produced by Live Nation and presented by inKind.
