PUBLISHED SEP 24, 2018

Mid-way through their 'WorldWired' North American tour and just months after wrapping up the European leg, Metallica, who still remain one of the biggest and most electrifying touring live acts in the world, have announced a massive, sprawling tour of the UK and Europe, set to kick off next year.

"We promised we would be back... it’s the return of the European summer vacation," exclaimed Metallica in an announcement on their website. "Following the attendance breaking indoor arena run that ended in May of this year, we are psyched to announce that we will be returning to Europe in May of next year to do an outdoor run of our own shows, primarily in stadiums, but also the occasional park and even a castle thrown in for good measure!"
