If you’ve been on the fence about buying tickets to see Metallica at Sphere, we have news that just might “Fuel” you.
After reviewing prices, it appears they are dropping for their upcoming “No Repeat Weekend” in Las Vegas.
When we last looked into how much it cost to see the Rock Hall of Famers’ Life Burns Faster residency at Sphere on both Thursday and Saturday, two-day passes started at $1,102 including fees on Vivid Seats.
Now, just a little over two weeks later, passes are going for $827 including fees.
For those without a calculator on hand, that’s a cool $175 in savings.
Prices have similarly plummeted for fans hoping to attend on just Thursday or Saturday.
Based on our findings, the cheapest seats for either show is $463 including fees to get in on Thursday, Oct. 29.
While these lower prices are certainly still expensive, we’d argue the juice is worth the squeeze for this bucket list-worthy live show.
Fans who attend on Night One will be treated to timeless classics “Master of Puppets,” “Seek & Destroy,” “Sad But True,” “Ride the Lightning” and, of course, “Nothing Else Matters,” according to past records at Set List FM.
Set List FM suggests night two favorites include “Enter Sandman,” “One,” “For Whom The Bell Tolls,” “The Unforgiven” and “Fuel.”
Yet, what puts their larger-than-life show over the top is the pure spectacle that comes with seeing a concert at Sphere in person.
“[During] ‘The Call of Ktulu,’ darkness opened into a vast oceanic world as an enormous creature rose from the sea, expanding until it occupied the entire visual field,” The Hollywood Reporter raved in a review of their “mind-melting” opening night show.
“It was a beautifully literal nod to the Lovecraftian mythology already baked into the song’s title, only now the monster Metallica had left to listeners’ imaginations for decades could loom hundreds of feet above them.”
All that for less? Count us in.
To make sure you’re fully in the loop, our team has everything you need to know and more about seeing Metallica’s Life Burns Faster residency concerts at Las Vegas Sphere below.

Metallica new music
On April 14, 2023, Metallica dropped their 11th studio album “72 Seasons.”
The thrumming, high-velocity record quickly sets the tone with the non-stop thrill ride title track and then refuses to let up throughout its healthy 77-minute runtime.
Indisputable highlights include the snaking “Sleepwalk My Life Away,” nakedly raw “You Must Burn!” and unrelenting “Lux Æterna.” Don’t expect a second to breathe; Metallica goes hard the entire time with nary a moment to rest. Just the way it should be.
To hear for yourself, you can listen to “72 Seasons” here.
