Megadeth and Lamb of God have revealed the 2021 dates for their rescheduled co-headlining North American tour. “The Metal Tour of the Year”, as it is called, also features Trivium and In Flames.
The bands had previously postponed the summer leg of the tour due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but had not made an announcement regarding the fall leg that was set to launch in October. In unveiling the new 2021 dates, Megadeth and Lamb of God have confirmed that the fall leg has been rescheduled, as well.
Instead of the massive 55-date two-leg tour that would have taken place this year, the 2021 outing has been consolidated into a continuous 42-date summer trek. Specifically, the tour kicks off July 9th in Detroit, and runs through a September 10th show in Las Vegas.
A message from all four bands reads, “We are excited to share the new 2021 dates for the Metal Tour of the Year. All tickets from the summer and fall legs of the tour will be honored for the new rescheduled dates in 2021. If you are a ticket holder and cannot make the new show, you will receive an email directly allowing you to request a refund. For more details, please visit livenation.com/refund. We can’t wait to get back on stage and get this tour kicked off.”
Lamb of God recently released their stellar self-titled new album, while it’s a safe bet that Megadeth should have a new LP out by the time the 2021 tour kicks off. Dave Mustaine and company have been working on their 16th album for quite some time, and hit the recording studio in recent weeks to start laying down the tracks.
