Metallica are returning to Europe after their tour earlier this year. In support of their latest album, Hardwired... To Self-Destruct, the band returns to European stadiums next year with Ghost and Bokassa. Tickets on sale this Friday, September 28th at 10 AM local time with Fan Club presales beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, September 25th.

The band said: "We promised we would be back... it's the return of the European summer vacation! 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!

"Kicking off May 1, 2019 in Lisbon, Portugal, the tour will visit 25 cities across 20 countries including many cities we did not stop in on the most recent excursion. Milan, Zürich, Dublin, Berlin, Moscow, Warsaw, Bucharest, Göteborg and Brussels (first time since 1988!) are all on the itinerary this summer. We also have three firsts (go figure!) with shows in Trondheim Norway, Hämeenlinna Finland, and Tartu, Estonia. Joining us for the festivities will be Ghost and Bokassa."

"We've got one more cool new thing for you on this tour as each ticket will include a free MP3 download of the show(s) you attended, all mixed by the team behind Hardwired... To Self-Destruct. All you need to do is scan the barcode on your ticket or enter it in on LiveMetallica.com/scan to pick up that free download of the full set.

"Finally, there is one thing that hasn't changed. As we have been doing for most of the WorldWired shows, every ticket purchased includes your choice of a standard physical or standard digital copy of Hardwired. Keep it for yourself or gift it to a friend or family member... you'll receive info via e-mail after your ticket purchase on how to obtain your copy."
