Metallica are the ‘Heroes of the Day’ after stepping in to save the Tomorrowland festival.
The Belgian EDM festival saw its main stage burn down in a fire just one day before it was scheduled to begin.
But Metallica stepped in and lent organizers the stage from their M72 tour, airlifting the setup from Austria to Belgium overnight.
The Tomorrowland festival was able to open its doors after just a two-hour delay, with performers like Swedish House Mafia, Steve Aoki, and Deadmau5. It’s expected to draw more than 400,000 attendees.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
