Recommendations of the Editorial team
When Metallica performs at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin on May 30th, there will be “intensive security measures” for this concert. The organizer gave this Live Nation known and explains that this is also the case at other band gigs.
What is meant by these special safety regulations? On-site security will carry out body checks on all visitors to ensure that no dangerous objects are brought onto the concert grounds.
According to the organizer, it is forbidden to bring bags, backpacks, helmets, umbrellas and all kinds of containers.
