About the event
Megadeth play Oslo Spektrum on 28 March 2027.
Megadeth were formed in Los Angeles in 1983 by Dave Mustaine, shortly after he was fired from Metallica, and he has been the only constant member since. Five of their seventeen studio albums are certified platinum in the United States, and the 2026 self-titled album became their first to top the Billboard 200 — and, Mustaine has said, their last.
