After weeks of anticipation, Linkin Park has officially unveiled their highly anticipated From Zero World Tour for 2025 – and left open the possibility of a Glastonbury performance.

The band – featuring Mike Shinoda, Dave ‘Phoenix’ Farrell, Joe Hahn, Emily Armstrong, and Colin Brittain – has confirmed a year-long tour that will see them playing to stadiums and arenas across North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America.

Their new album, From Zero, will drop tomorrow, marking the bands first new music since 2017 and their first without late lead singer Chester Bennington.

The From Zero World Tour follows a period of creative reinvention and controversy for the band.

The introduction of new singer Emily Armstong proved to be divisive for fans, some of whom felt that the death of frontman Chester Bennington should have been the end of the band.

Emily’s debut proved even more controversial after fans unearthed her historic support of Danny Masterson, which she was forced to address.

But the band seems primed for a triumphant comeback regardless, with Mike Shinoda expressing his excitement for the upcoming tour: ‘Getting back out on the road has been incredible.

‘The fans’ support is overwhelming, and we’re ready to take this energy even further around the world. From Zero is a new chapter for us, and we’re so excited to share it with everyone on a bigger scale.’

While the full details of the album are still under wraps, early teasers have suggested that From Zero will incorporate elements of rock, electronic, and hip-hop, blending the band’s familiar anthemic style with fresh sonic explorations.

The From Zero World Tour will feature songs from the new album as well as the classics and will span multiple continents, with over 50 dates confirmed so far.

In addition to their extensive headline shows, Linkin Park will also make special appearances at several major music festivals around the world.

It’s also notable that the band have no conflicts with Glastonbury 2025, the lineup for which has yet to be announced.

Several exciting support acts will join Linkin Park at various points throughout the tour. Among the names confirmed so far are the Spiritbox, Queens Of The Stone Age, and AFI.
