Linkin Park will be headlining the UK's Download Festival on Saturday June 14th, 2014 and performing HYBRID THEORY in its entirety!

 

Weekend and VIP tickets are available now at: http://www.downloadfestival.co.uk/, and there is an "Earlybird" deal of £10 off all tickets purchased before 9am, Friday 8th November 2013.

Day tickets do not go on-sale until nearer the event (April/May 2014).

 

Chester: “We have been kicking around the idea of playing HYBRID THEORY for some time and the perfect opportunity is DOWNLOAD 2014. The legendary energy of the DOWNLOAD crowd is the apex of the rock experience and we are very excited to share this special night with them.”

Before you all lose it and buy tickets and flights to Download. Don't do something you might regret later. Wait for them to announce more shows. This won't be the only show they'll do this. For example Metallica did it for an entire tour.

I was pissed of in 2007 when they announced Rock im Park/Rock am Ring and got a ticket for RiP and then they announced the Hamburg arena show which was a billion times better.

[gorast]

Holy shit. They're actually doing it.

 

Do all five albums, you motherfuckers.

 

And do them in Florida.

yup.

~£80 for a day ticket alone, could easily get you into 2 uk arena shows.

Those were my thoughts as well. Every band I have seen that does this usually just ends up making a tour or series of shows for it. I'm sure with all the time they spend rehearsing, they figure they might as well make it worth it.. I'm sure LP won't be different.

I'm expecting next years tour to be HT in its entirety.

lol don't be greedy. I didn't expect them to be doing that EVER.

[lgr]

I'm not convinced you'll get HT in full in an arena show (given Chester's comments above) but you never know.

[Dave-Stone55]

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, NEVER THOUGHT LP WOULD ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!!!!!!! let's see ANYONE hear complain about this announcement... go ahead... I DARE YOU

[UpRoadLeft]

Forgotten live in 2014

Who would've thought it'd be possible after Chester and Phoenix's comments on the song

Do you think they'll play by the order of the album or not ?

[Bajtak]

yup.

~£80 for a day ticket alone, could easily get you into 2 uk arena shows.

 

how to get single ticket? There is so many options.

[hahninator]

Holy shit this might be the best thing Linkin Park has ever done.

 

What the actual fuck. I didn't think they could outdo themselves from touring with Incubus (a dream come true). THIS....is insane. WOW.

 

Gotta get to Europe. The comments make it sound like they are doing it for one show only, but no way they rehearse for weeks to do it just once. Surely more festivals will get it. Let's jam people regardless.

[GlassCastles]

This is your guys compensation for the not getting a tour on LIVING THINGS, you lucky motherfuckers.

[Anality]

This is probably the best idea LP has ever had for a live show in about ever.

[Bajtak]

some1 know how to get single ticket for LP show ? cant find single

[maik_gianino]

Can i say HOLY FUCK?

 

They actually will play the whole fucking album, great news for the English bastards who complained the whole fucking Living Things tour for 1 Show. Now you have it! Enjoy this AMAZING opportunity guys!

 

So happy for the band, and for the fans in England, without doubts one of the best fan base in the world!

 

 

I don't have doubts about the new album sound, will be more Hybrid Theoryish and less Living Things, give me the papers i will sign my words right now!

[lgr]

day tickets go on-sale closer to the event, only weekend passes are available at the moment. but like AndOne says, this is just one date out of many - I would urge people to wait and see the rest of the line-up/potential further dates on a tour before booking.

 

also, I feel like this is necessary -

No idea how it works with Download but maybe they sell day tickets later on? It's like that for Rock am Ring/Rock im Park for example.

[maik_gianino]

Linkin Park will headline Saturday at Download 2014, performing 'Hybrid Theory' in its entirety as part of their set.
