Metallica are to play at the new Wembley Stadium on 8 Jul. The band, who are currently at work recording a new album, say it's something they've always wanted to do.
Drummer Lars Ulrich says: "This gives us a chance to stretch out a bit and jam in front of real fans".
Singer James Hetfield adds: "We always dreamed of some day headlining the marquee venues around the world, including Wembley".
Tickets on sale tomorrow.
