Metallica to Perform in Perth on November 1, 2025

Metallica will perform in Perth, Australia, on November 1, 2025, at Optus Stadium as part of their M72 World Tour, marking their first Australian tour since 2013. This concert is significant for Western Australia, which often misses out on major international events due to logistical challenges. The band's return follows a successful year for WA's events industry, which generated $286 million for the state, bolstered by events like Coldplay's 2023 shows. Metallica's lineup will feature founding members James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, alongside Kirk Hammett and Robert Trujillo. The band recently announced a North American tour before their Australian dates, emphasizing their commitment to global performances. Fans can expect unique support acts and enhanced experiences during the tour, continuing the M72 tradition.
