Heavy-metal legends Megadeth will be joined by Lamb of God, Trivium and In Flames when they come to S&T Bank Music Park in Burgettstown on June 28.

Tickets for the show will go on sale Feb. 14 at LiveNation.com.

“The world has never needed heavy more than it does today, and top to bottom, this tour delivers,” said Lamb of God lead guitarist Mark Morton. “Lamb of God has toured with and been friends with all of these bands for years, but for us to be on the same bill is something extra special.”

Lamb of God released its first new music in five years last week with the single “Checkmate.” Megadeth, fueled by leader Dave Mustaine’s return to the stage following his diagnosis and recovery from throat cancer, is embarking on its first North American tour since 2017.

“If you want high-octane metal madness, this is the tour for you,” Mustaine said in a news release.

The 55-city tour kicks off June 12 in Virginia and runs through mid-November.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. at LiveNation.com.
