Metallica ‘maxing out’ Sphere residency with four additional shows

Metallica has added four more shows to their upcoming Life Burns Faster residency at the high-tech Sphere venue in Las Vegas.

The newly announced dates take place March 4 and 6, and 11 and 13, 2027. Presales for members of the Metallica Fifth Member fan club begin Friday at 7 a.m. PT.

Metallica’s Sphere schedule now includes a total of 24 shows. Along with the March dates, performances will take place on Oct. 1 and 3, 8 and 10, 15 and 17, 22 and 24, and 29 and 31; Nov. 5 and 7; Jan. 28 and 30; and Feb. 4 and 6, 18 and 20, and 25 and 27.

Each show takes place on a Thursday or Saturday, with the Thursday concert featuring a completely unique set list from its corresponding Saturday performance.

It would seem that the March dates are the final shows to be added. In a post on their website, Metallica writes, “This is it-we’re maxing out Life Burns Faster.”

Tickets go on sale to the general public beginning Friday at 10 a.m. PT.
