Metallica’s headline show promises to deliver an unforgettable night for fans, combining world-class entertainment off-track with world-class racing on track.
Formed in 1981 by vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich and including guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo, Metallica has become one of the most influential and successful rock bands in history, selling nearly 125mn albums worldwide and generating more than 17bn streams while playing to millions of fans on all seven continents — more than 1.3mn of whom belong to the band’s fiercely loyal and consistently growing Fifth Member fan club.
Metallica’s catalog of multi-platinum studio albums includes Kill ’Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, …And Justice for All, Metallica (commonly referred to as The Black Album), Load, ReLoad, St. Anger, Death Magnetic, Hardwired…To Self-Destruct, and most recently, the Grammy-winning 72 Seasons, released April 14, 2023, on the band’s own Blackened Recordings label.
Metallica’s awards and accolades include nine Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, multiple MTV Video Music Awards, a 2009 induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Sweden’s Polar Music Prize. In 2017, Metallica established its own charitable foundation, All Within My Hands, to give back to communities that have supported the band. To date, All Within My Hands’ collective efforts have raised nearly $20mn since inception, including $11.4mn in grants to workforce education, $7.4mn to fight hunger globally, and $5.2mn donated to critical local services around the world. 100% of donations go directly to local organisations that the Foundation supports. As always, Metallica covers all administrative costs.
