Metallica have added shows in Oakland, CA and Beijing, China to their WorldWired tour in support of their tenth album, “Hardwired…To Self Destruct.”
“In the last two months, we’ve been to New York City, Latin America and Europe so it’s about time we plan some festivities right at home in the Bay Area!,” says the band. “And what better way to wind down the year than a special Fifth Members show in our own backyard at the historic Fox Theater in Oakland, CA as we hit the stage there on December 17th for the last time in 2016... it promises to be quite the party!”
A Fifth Member presale starts November 17 at 10:00 AM PST; tickets are priced at $25 with all proceeds donated to the Alameda County Community Food Bank.
General public tickets will go on sale via Ticketmaster.com for $100 each starting November 18th at 10:00 AM PST.
“Everyone who comes to the show is encouraged to celebrate the spirit of holidays by bringing a donation of canned goods to the venue that night and we’ll have collection bins by all the entrances,” adds the group. “Take a break from the shopping and merriment to spread some holiday cheer with us in Oakland!!”
Metallica have also announced plans to return to China for their first appearance in Beijing at the Le Sports Center on January 18.
Tickets will be available on November 17 starting at 2:00 PM through the ticketing hotline 400-610-3721 and online via Damai.cn.
Metallica will release “Hardwired…To Self Destruct” on November 18.
