Linkin Park Announce 2026 Australian Tour

It’s been a long time coming, but the wait is finally over: Linkin Park are returning to Australia in March 2026.

Their first stops Down Under since playing at Soundwave Festival in 2013 – and a string of headline dates – Linkin Park will arrive in Australia with a new vocalist, Emily Armstrong, and songs from their first album in seven years.

Following vocalist Chester Bennington’s tragic passing in 2017, Linkin Park went on hiatus—they didn’t tour or release new music until last year, when they returned with From Zero, which marked their first album with Emily Armstrong, who shares the mic with rapper, singer, and producer Mike Shinoda.

The tour begins at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Tuesday, 3 March, before heading to Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Sunday, 8 March, and Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Saturday, 14 March. With so much space between dates and incredibly high anticipation for the band’s return to Australia, we wouldn’t be surprised to see more dates added to this tour.

Fans have numerous options to purchase tickets for Linkin Park’s From Zero tour of Australia.

Punters registered to Linkin Park’s fan club, LP Underground, will have the earliest access to tickets. Legacy members will access tickets first on Monday, 18 August, at 9 am local time, and Passport members will follow with the pre-sale opening at 10 am local time. Both of those pre-sales close on Friday, 22 August, at 10 am local time.

You can find more information about LP Underground on the Linkin Park website.

Eligible mobile Vodafone customers and Commbank Yello cardholders can access pre-sale tickets on Tuesday, 19 August, at 11 am local time in a 48-hour pre-sale. Head to the Vodafone and Commbank websites for more details.

Live Nation members can access pre-sale tickets at 12 pm local time on Thursday, 21 August. The general sale opens on Friday, 22 August, at 11 am local time. For more ticketing information, head to the Live Nation website.

In a statement, Mike Shinoda said of the band’s long-awaited return to Australia, “Getting back out on the road has been incredible. The fans’ support is overwhelming, and we’re ready to bring this energy to Australia. FROM ZERO is a new chapter for us, and we’re so excited to share it with everyone on a bigger scale.”

Linkin Park presently comprises original members Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Dave “Phoenix” Farrell, and Joe Hahn, plus new bandmates Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain.

Shinoda said of Armstrong and Brittain joining the band last September, “The more we worked with Emily and Colin, the more we enjoyed their world-class talents, their company, and the things we created.

“We feel really empowered with this new line-up and the vibrant and energised new music we’ve made together. We’re weaving together the sonic touchpoints we’ve been known for and still exploring new ones.”
