to play slane castle 

Metallica’s WorldWired Tour has confirmed an Irish date at Slane Castle on Saturday 8th June as part of an extensive European Tour.

This will be Metallica’s first Irish show in a decade.

Tickets on sale here.

The new dates are Metallica’s first in the UK and Europe since the Sept. 2017 to May 2018 indoor run that broke attendance records in 29 venues across the continent. Kicking off May 1, 2019 at Lisbon’s Estadio Restelo, the 25 newly announced WorldWired shows across 20 countries include a good dozen cities not visited on those 2017-2018 legs of the tour—including Milan, Zürich, Dublin, Brussels (for the first time since 1988), Berlin, Moscow, Warsaw, Bucharest and Gothenburg, and first ever appearances in Trondheim Norway, Hämeenlinna Finland and Tartu Estonia.

Special guests Ghost, Bokassa and Dublin band Fangclub.
