After doing a handful of dates this past year, Linkin Park will resume touring on a grand scale in 2025, with dates that stretch across most of the calendar year and hit major cities in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia.

Most of the shows on the From Zero World Tour are in arenas spanning several continents, but the reconstituted band has stadium shows along the way, too — notably, a Wembley date in London June 28, and a stop at L.A.’s Dodger Stadium on Sept. 13.

A sampling of other venues in the more than 50 cities along the routing include Newark’s Prudential Center, Boston’s TD Garden, Chicago’s United Center, Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center, Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, Vancouver’s Rogers Arena, Portland’s Moda Center, Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena, Phoenix’s Footprint Center and Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena. (Scroll down for a full list of dates.)

Opening acts on the tour will be Queens of the Stone Age, Spiritbox, AFI, Architects, Grandson, Jean Dawson, JPEGMAFIA and PVRIS.

The band and Live Nation Concerts announced fan club presales will begin on Nov. 18. The general onsale for North American shows kicks off Nov. 21 at noon local time. Europe/U.K. concerts have a general onsale time of noon local time on Nov. 22. Ticket information for all dates can be found here. (Onsale information for the final stretch of shows in South America will be forthcoming later.)

The tour plans revealed Thursday came just hours ahead of the release of a new album for the group, “From Zero,” its first with new member Emily Armstrong joining band founder Mike Shinoda as a lead singer, and first without the late Chester Bennington. The band had been on hiatus from his 2017 death until this year, when the group released “Heavy Is the Crown” as a surprise comeback single.

Their 2025 tour starts Jan. 25 in Mexico City. The U.S. dates commence with a previously announced appearance headlining Las Vegas’ Sick New World Festival April 12. From there, the group does about a month of shows in the U.S., taking a temporary exit from the road in mid-May before heading to Europe for the better part of June and July. A second and longer stretch of concerts in North America finds the band sticking around its home country for three months, from a gig at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center July 29 through a U.S. wrap-up Sept. 24 at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena. The final stretch of concerts takes them to Latin America in late October and the first half of November.

Linkin Park tour itinerary Live Nation

The new version of the group is finishing up what amounted to a reintroductory limited tour this fall. After debuting the Armstrong-co-led lineup to the world via a livestream from a Warner Bros. soundstage on Sept. 5, they started a very brief fun of arena shows in U.S. cities with an appearance at L.A.’s Kia Forum — enthusiastically reviewed by Variety under the banner “Linkin Park Rises From the Ashes With Dark Songs, a Joyful Attitude and a New Singer Who Does Primal Scream Therapy Proud.” The group went on to perform two more U.S. shows, at Barclays Center and Arlington, Texas’ Globe Life Field, also hitting the U.K., France, South Korea, Brazil and Columbia. Linkin Park’s last two shows for 2025 are scheduled for Brazil on Friday and Saturday night.
