Metallica Announces Intimate November 2026 Shows With Suicidal Tendencies And Spiritbox

Metallica has announced a pair of special “intimate” U.S. concerts set to take place in November 2026, with support from Suicidal Tendencies and Spiritbox. The shows will be held at the Mohegan Sun Arena as part of the venue’s 25th-anniversary celebrations.

The concerts are scheduled for November 19 and November 21, 2026, and will follow the band’s “No Repeat Weekend” format, meaning each night will feature completely different setlists with no songs repeated.

Opening duties will rotate across the two nights. Suicidal Tendencies will appear as special guests on November 19, while Spiritbox will open the November 21 show.

Although the arena holds around 10,000 fans, the performances are considered intimate by Metallica standards, since the band typically headlines stadiums and massive festival crowds. These concerts will also mark the group’s first return to Connecticut since 1998, making them particularly notable for longtime fans in the region.

Tickets are expected to go on sale to the general public April 10, with fan-club presales beginning April 8.

The newly announced dates will close out a busy touring cycle for Metallica, which has spent the past several years on the massive M72 World Tour in support of its 2023 album 72 Seasons.
