Linkin Park, the iconic American rock band, has officially announced that it is set to perform in Australia in March 2026 after a gap of over a decade. The rock band last toured Australia in 2013, when they also performed at the Soundwave Festival. The upcoming tour is the first since their revival with new vocalist Emily Armstrong. Linkin Park’s tour of Australia will be presented by Live Nation and Triple M. The US rock band will begin the tour on March 3, 2026, at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. From there, the band will travel to Melbourne and perform at Rod Laver Arena on March 8, 2026, and Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney on March 14, 2026.

The iconic band marked their return in 2024 with From Zero, their first album in seven years. It’s the first release since the tragic loss of vocalist Chester Bennington and features original members Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Dave “Phoenix” Farrell, Joe Hahn, plus new members Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain.

“Getting back out on the road has been incredible,” Mike Shinoda said in a statement, as quoted by Rolling Stone. “The fans’ support is overwhelming, and we’re ready to bring this energy to Australia,” the statement further read. “[Latest album] From Zero is a new chapter for us, and we’re so excited to share it with everyone on a bigger scale,” he continued.

Linkin Park’s reunion tour kicked off in 2024. From Zero, their first album since 2017’s One More Light, debuted at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart. Armstrong officially joined the rock band’s lineup in September 2024.
