The American rock legend has already started its WorldWired tour this October and will continue to play in stadiums and arenas all over the world. And just so happens that Metallica has tour dates in Central/Eastern Europe that coincide with Sziget Festival. Metallica "WorldWired" Tour Metallica has released its latest studio album, Hardwired... to Self-Destruct, back in 2016, after staying away from the
