It has been confirmed that rock group Metallica will play their first Irish show in a decade at Slane Castle next year.
They are bringing their WorldWired show to Slane on June 8th 2019.
Special guests include Ghost and Bokassa.
However the concert remains subject to licence.
We’re returning to the UK & Europe next summer for a run of outdoor gigs at stadiums, parks, & even one at a castle! Our friends @thebandGHOST and @Bokassaband will be joining us along the way.
