The announcement comes on the final day of Reveal Week, unveiling all the top-tier shows and events at Chase Center when it opens this fall. Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony will team up for the first concert on September 6.



There's still six regular-season games to be played at Oracle Arena, plus the hopes of a deep playoff run. The team is hoping to leave Oakland with a bang, securing their fourth championship in five years with a threepeat.
