After a 13-year absence, Linkin Park will return to Australia in March 2026, embarking on their first Down Under performances since headlining the 2013 Soundwave Festival.

The upcoming trek will see the band take the stage at Brisbane Entertainment Centre, Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne and Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, marking their inaugural Australian arena dates of the From Zero World Tour.

Though they toured in support of every album through Living Things (2012), Australia was omitted from both The Hunting Party (2014) and the One More Light world tour before vocalist Chester Bennington’s passing in July 2017.

Launched in September 2024, the From Zero World Tour is Linkin Park’s first with new frontwoman Emily Armstrong. “I’m ecstatic, yet aware of the responsibility,” Armstrong told Billboard. “Performing songs defined by Chester’s voice means finding my own balance—honoring his legacy while bringing my own emotion.”

“It’s his spirit intertwined with mine,” she added. “I want each lyric to resonate with the passion fans expect, while reflecting how the music moves me today.”
