METALLICA: Swedish Gig Sells Out In Two Hours

December 10, 2003

Tickets for METALLICA's concert scheduled for May 30, 2004 at Ullevi stadium in Gothenburg, Sweden sold out within two hours after going on sale on Wednesday (December 10),according to local media reports. More than 50,000 tickets were snapped up for METALLICA's biggest-ever gig in Sweden, and their first in the Scandinavian country since 1998 when they played Stockholm.

Although Ullevi's official capacity is believed to be around 55,000, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN's two concerts at the stadium earlier this year reportedly drew around 128,000 fans.

METALLICA have so far confirmed nine European dates next spring, beginning May 26 in Copenhagen and including a June 4 headlining appearance at the Rock in Rio festival in Lisbon. A new round of North American dates is expected to kick off on March 2.
