2026.01.25 - Mumbai, India - Lollapalooza India

[LPLStaff]

Can you believe that it's already time for the last show of the first leg of 2026? Maybe not, since we were only given four shows to follow to start the year, but don't worry - Linkin Park is back at it with Australia and New Zealand followed by a long (by LP standards) European leg this summer. And according to Mike, that's going to be the last actual tour of the From Zero World Tour as the band wraps up to make new music eventually.

 

The last show of this leg is going to be the biggest as Linkin Park headlines Lollapalooza India in Mumbai to over 80,000 fans, over double the size of their show in Bengaluru, India this weekend. Bengaluru was a smash hit, with fans and press both raving about the show. The online reaction has been a sensation, one of the largest receptions we've ever seen for Linkin Park playing a show. Jim, the band's production manager commented on Instagram: "We are so very lucky to have been hosted by all of the beautiful Book My Show team. The very best first show in new territory we’ve ever had. We absolutely could not have have so much joy bringing Linkin Park to India without you. Thank you, thank you, thank you."

In Mumbai, Linkin Park will close out day 2 of 2 at the festival with a full 2 hour headlining slot, not cutting anything short for the fans who have been waiting to see them for so long. Taking place at the Mahalakshmi Race Course, Bloodywood (who performed in Bengaluru) again joins the band and Calum Scott and others will also perform before them earlier in the day. You can bet Linkin Park fans in India are already in line as of sunrise, or even earlier, as they have been warmly welcomed in the country. In a recent interview with Phoenix this week, he's already anticipating the NEXT time Linkin Park can perform in India and looks forward to returning.

Song-wise, Linkin Park is playing it pretty easy to start the year. What's left to play? At this point, without Let You Fade and Unshatter showing up (which seem unlikely at this point for this show), we are missing A Place For My Head and Casualty at least. And beyond that, with a Set A setlist bound to return, we are unsure what else could happen! From The Inside, maybe? We'll see! Set C made an appearance in Bengaluru with Lying From You, New Divide, Cut The Bridge, Lies Greed Misery, IGYEIH, Good Things Go, and Over Each Other. We should be back to Set A, but with song rotations being completely random, the band could toss anything in if they're feeling it. We're surprised Castle Of Glass hasn't been played lately!

 

We haven't seen a lot of traction the past handful of LP shows with Mike's rap verses either, with him sticking to the standard verses although it is nice to see It's Goin' Down get some love in Bengaluru!

 

If you're there be sure to say hey to Dylan @RogueSoul as he's on his India trip to see Linkin Park and is having a blast so far! Unfortunately after this we have well over a month off for more Linkin Park shows but we will be sure to keep you updated along the way with band news and more, and of course all of the Mumbai updates. 

 

Let's rock and roll!

I didn't think Castle of Glass would ever leave the set, it feels like WFTE in that it's a unique song that Mike is proud of and is popular enough to warrant the variety

 

Maybe it's not popular in the region? I wonder if they've ever pulled data about certain singles not being popular in certain areas to determine setlists at all 

[LPLStaff]

Not sure, but 4 shows in areas they have never visited (besides Abu Dhabi once) is hard to determine if songs are in or out. They're just as liable to play Brisbane next with Castle, APFMH, and Casualty in there lol

 

What IS concerning is Let You Fade and Unshatter. Both really may be gone.

Linkin Park have also been playing Castle of Glass with Lies Greed Misery in rotation at 13 concerts since August 1st, 2025, so it's nothing new that the song isn't in the setlist in 2026.

I'm getting a bit lost and can't keep up with which songs are the rotation ones right now. It would be awesome to have a Linkinpedia tour summary page for the From Zero tour with all the setlist info. It's pretty hard for me to track at the moment. 

 

I know there are already setlist pages with the rotation songs clearly marked, but I’m looking for more of a stats page. Something that shows how often each song was played, when it was last played, and stuff like that. That would be awesome!

This should be what you're looking for. I recommend looking on Setlist.fm they have great Set stats for almost every artist.

Glad to write something up. The only issue with setlist.fm's breakdown is it's talking about every song performance of tour - Sabi is asking about the From Zero trends of what songs are coming back in and out.

 

That's easy for me to write - can do it by tour "leg" and say what songs came around, what highlights were, etc. Great idea, will try to get something done this week.
