Metallica partners with Red Cross for Las Vegas blood drive

Metallica has partnered with the American Red Cross to launch the ‘Metallica X Red Cross #BleedingMe’ blood drive in Las Vegas. The initiative is being held in coordination with the band’s residency at the Sphere.

From September 28 through March 19, a Metallica-themed pop-up donation center will operate at Fashion Show Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip. The center aims to provide an immersive experience, featuring a replica of a backstage area and a drum kit similar to the one used by drummer Lars Ulrich.

Donors can receive a limited-edition T-shirt designed by Squindo while supplies last and will be entered for a chance to win Lars Ulrich’s Tama drum kit. The pop-up is scheduled to be open Monday through Friday from noon to 6 PM through mid-November, with further hours to be announced for the remainder of the drive.
