May 22, 2012, 12 years ago
METALLICA are taking their famed snake pit stage setup to Edmonton, Alberta’s Rexall Place on Friday, August 17th. Ticket releases will go on sale Friday, May 25th at 10 AM.
Metallica will perform their catalogue of hits amidst a mind-blowing 360-degree stage that needs to be seen to be believed. This 140x50-foot stage will feature colossal components and striking visual elements spanning Metallica’s entire 30-year career.
Metallica's website reports: "We recently told you about our all new, out of control, massive stage and Metalli-show that will debut in Mexico City in late July. The brand new show features your favorite iconic elements spanning our entire 30 year touring career all on a huge 140x50-foot stage that is twice the size of the World Magnetic set up... all in the round! Now after eight sold out shows there, we’re super psyched to take it north for a show with our Canadian friends in Edmonton, AB at Rexall Place on August 17th.
Tickets go on sale on Friday, May 25th at 10 AM local time with a Live Nation pre-sale on Thursday, May 24th from 10 AM to 10:00 PM. Met Club members should log in for details about their pre-sale starting Wednesday, May 23rd.
Keep watching here... we have one more announcement for you VERY soon."
