Metallica Launch Las Vegas Blood Drive With Red Cross
Metallica are bringing their live presence to a charitable cause in Las Vegas, teaming up with the American Red Cross for a special blood drive dubbed the Metallica X Red Cross #BleedingMe blood drive. The initiative coincides with the group’s residency at the Sphere.
What’s Going On With Metallica’s Red Cross Blood Drive?
Between Sept. 28 and March 19, fans can give blood at a Metallica-themed pop-up donation center located at Fashion Show Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip, situated at 3200 Las Vegas Blvd. S in Las Vegas, Nev. 89109.
Donors will receive a limited-edition T-shirt designed by Squindo while supplies last, alongside refreshments available at the Delta Backstage Lounge. Participants will also be entered for a chance to win Lars Ulrich’s Tama drum kit.
Beyond the donation space, the pop-up functions as an immersive experience replicating a concert backstage area. Fans can even sit at a replica drum kit mirroring the setup Ulrich uses onstage.
How to Donate and Enter the Contest
Appointments can be scheduled through the special website set up for the Metallica X Red Cross blood drive. Fans can also register and review terms for the Lars Ulrich drum kit contest there.
Alternatively, donations can be scheduled by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS or by downloading the Blood Donor App.
The donation center operates Monday through Friday from Noon to 6 PM through mid-November. Hours for the remainder of the run are scheduled to be announced at a later date.
