According to festivalisten.de, Linkin Park will headline the Download Festival next year. The dates for the festival are June 10 through 12. An official confirmation is expected soon (as in, today) from the Download Festival and/or Linkin Park.
This is the first 2011 tour date for Europe! Source: here. EDIT: Radio 1 has just announced it live on air! EDIT 2: Kerrang has announced it on Twitter! EDIT 3: It's on the Download Twitter account. EDIT 4: Confirmed on the official Download Festival website. and now EDIT 5: Officially confirmed by Linkin Park on their Twitter account here. "We'll be headlining the 2011 Download Festival." Rock am Ring / Rock im Park have already confirmed their three headliners (Kings Of Leon, Coldplay & System Of A Down), so for 2011 in Europe it looks like Linkin Park will play other festivals. Sonisphere maybe? Perhaps the Projekt Revolution Tour will return to Europe? What do you guys think? -------------------- "Singing at their top of their lungs, being passionate, some people cry when their favourite song comes on, people rip their clothes off...

I just heard this Live on Radio 1 as an exclusive announcement. There was massive hype and it was announced they're playing.

QUOTE (maik_gianino @ Dec 6 2010, 04:51 PM) A bit of topic... Any new about Southamerica 2011 ¿? Nothing yet. I think since LP will tour in this order: Australia, North America, Asia, Europe, North America...that the South American 2011 shows, if they play there in 2011, will come after the North America shows in summer 2011. -------------------- QUOTE Victim of the 2011 Atlanta plot twist!
