Tickets for this one-night-only event go on sale Friday, August 14!
Legendary rock band Metallica be the first band to kick off a new series of concerts in Colorado, which will also be shown at drive-ins across the country and in Canada. As part of the Encore Drive-In Nights concert series, the one-night event will be a Metallica experience that's promised to be "one of the most unique and memorable METALLICA experiences of all time."
The band has been hard at work making music to record a concert that is intended to be enjoyed on the big screen. This is the first time in almost a year that all the band members have been together recording. Three Days Grace will perform a special guest performance as part of the show.

Tix go on sale Friday, 8/14 with a Fifth Member presale on Wednesday, 8/12. Visit https://t.co/USlKNdaEll for more info. pic.twitter.com/AiD8sPe4IS
