Metallica has confirmed its return to the stage for the first time since the September 2019 S&M2 concerts that opened Chase Center in San Francisco. Metallica will be the first rock band to be featured in the Encore Drive-In Nights series, with a full set showing August 29 at hundreds of drive-in and outdoor theatres across the United States and Canada. The show will be shot specially for the Encore Drive-In Nights Series at a location near the band\u2019s Northern California headquarters and will subsequently be edited and mixed by Metallica’s award winning production team to the highest standards possible. The concert, the band\u2019s first show in nearly a year, will feature material from throughout their near four-decade career and provide Metallica fans with an intimate, unique and truly memorable concert experience.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Pre-sale tickets, available exclusively to Metallica\u2019s Fifth Member fan club, will go on sale on August 12 at Ticketmaster<\/a>. General on-sale will begin on August 14. Every ticket purchase — which admits one carload of up to six people — will include four digital downloads of Metallica\u2019s S&M2, the long awaited album documenting the two historic concerts that reunited the band and San Francisco Symphony for the first time in 20 years.<\/p>\n

The Metallica show is part of the Encore Drive-In Nights Series, which is presented by leading event production company Encore Live. Since June, Encore Live has partnered with drive-in theatres across the country to provide world-class entertainment in a safe, creative way. For more information and to see if a venue near you is presenting the show, visit encorenights.com or call your local theatre. The August 29 show will also feature a special guest performance by Three Days Grace.<\/p>\n

Drive-in theatres hosting the concert will adhere to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended guidelines as well as all state and local health mandates. Staff will wear personal protective equipment and enforce at least six feet of space between cars. The series will also use contactless payment and ticketing systems and limit capacity in restrooms. Guidelines around concessions will be enforced to abide by individual state regulations. For a full list of procedures that the Encore Drive-In Nights is employing to keep fans and staff safe, visit encorenights.com.<\/p>\n

Unlike traditional concert tickets that are bought for one fan\u2019s individual admission, each purchase for Encore Drive-In Nights\u2019 concerts will admit one carload of fans. That means up to six people can enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime show for one price. Additional information about Encore Drive-In Nights can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Encore Drive-In Nights showcases the world\u2019s most iconic music stars with performances recorded exclusively for drive-in theatres across North America. From the safety of your vehicle you will enjoy an exclusive cinematic concert experience under the summer night sky. Drive-in. Rock out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
