Linkin Park Reveals Exciting Plans for Australia Tour Soon!

Linkin Park has officially announced their much-anticipated return tour in Australia, presented by Live Nation and Triple M.

The legendary US rock band is set to launch the tour on March 3rd at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre, followed by performances at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on March 8th and Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney on March 14th. This marks their first tour in Australia since 2013 and their first with new vocalist Emily Armstrong.

“Hitting the road again has been a thrilling experience,” Mike Shinoda remarked in a statement. “The support from our fans is truly amazing, and we’re eager to bring this energy to Australia. Our latest album, *From Zero*, symbolizes a new chapter for us, and we can’t wait to share it on a larger scale.”

Linkin Park’s reunion tour commenced last year, despite facing some controversy involving late frontman Chester Bennington’s family and matters surrounding Armstrong. Their new album, *From Zero*, has already made waves by debuting at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, marking their first release since 2017’s *One More Light*.

Armstrong was officially welcomed to the band’s lineup last September. During their first live show with the new configuration, frontman Shinoda told the audience, “We’re ecstatic to be back and want you to know this isn’t about erasing the past. Instead, it’s about embarking on this new chapter for all of you. We thoroughly enjoyed writing this music and are incredibly excited about the new record.”

Shinoda later discussed the challenges of performing without Bennington on *The Tonight Show*, clarifying, “We never set out to just bring the band back or find a new singer. That was never our aim.”
