Circle the date -- Metallica is coming to a drive-in near you on Saturday, August 29. Metallica will be the first rock band to partner with the Encore Drive-In Nights series, and its show will be available at drive-in theaters across the U.S. and Canada.
Tickets will be available on the primary market via
Ticketmaster beginning Friday, August 14 at 12 p.m. local time for each venue.
Ticket holders will get four downloads of Metallica's S&M2, a new concert and album film featuring Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony, set for release on August 28.
Shows start at different times at different venues, and at least one drive-in will show the concert twice. Shows begin as early as 6 p.m. and as late at 11:59 p.m. at other venues. You can view the entire schedule

Though rules may differ at every drive-in, social distancing and mask wearing will be in effect, and patrons will be asked to remain in their cars for the show. Some venues have additional restrictions, from window guidelines to car spacing to rules for exiting a vehicle to use the restroom.
Tickets and payments will be contactless.

TicketIQ is committed to the cheapest tickets possible, and we make much less on sold out tickets compared to other major marketplaces like StubHub and Vivid. That means ticket buyers save from up to 25% on TicketIQ on sports, music and theater. We're able to do this because we also work with teams, venues, and other ticket owners, to help them sell tickets at face price, directly to consumers like you, through Ticketmaster, Seatgeek and other primary ticketing platforms. You can read our new Music Buying Guide that we think is the most objective advice on where to find the best deals on summer concert tickets, whether they're 'sold out' on TicketIQ or 'unsold' on the primary ticket market.
