Witnessing Linkin Park live is a dream, even more so if you are an Indian fan, who has listened to them throughout our childhood and teens going well into adulthood. Making their debut in India earlier this week in Bengaluru, and in Mumbai at Lollapalooza last night, the fandom took a whole new level.

After performing some of their biggest hits, the American rock band's co-founder Mike Shinoda stepped off the stage to interact with fans, and spoke to one die-hard fan who revealed he and his wife had skipped their honeymoon to witness Linkin Park live.

In a kind gesture for the couple, he gave them his cap, as a reward for their fandom, but joked that they would have to share it, making their dream come true for life.

Their performance was even more special for millennials, who had been wearing Linkin Park T-shirts from the first day of Lollapalooza, and wore it on the second day too, and even camped at the stage since late afternoon braving the sweltering heat.

Linkin Park started their set with 'Somewhere I Belong' and followed it up with 'Crawling' before playing 'The Emptiness Machine' among others, and finally ended their Lollapalooza India 2026, which is produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live, with 'In The End'.
