LINKIN PARK is preparing to make a major announcement later today (Sept. 5) in front of a live audience. However, before the event, attendees were required to sign a waiver. That waiver has since been posted on Reddit, giving fans a glimpse of what they might expect.
LINKIN PARK‘s waiver for their upcoming event is primarily a legal document protecting the band from liability. However, it also hints at some details about what fans can expect.
The band’s ability to maintain secrecy around the event’s location and details has been a notable aspect of this campaign. The waiver suggests that this mystery will continue, as it states that attendees will be transported to and from the venue. This implies that the location is not publicly known, likely to prevent unauthorized access or speculation.
Additionally, the waiver indicates that attendees grant the band rights to use their likeness in filmed or recorded footage. This supports the idea that the event will be filmed, aligning with the YouTube video’s scheduled release at 3PM PT / 6PM ET.
This invitation follows the conclusion of LINKIN PARK’s mysterious 100-hour countdown, which unexpectedly glitched, reset, and began counting upward from zero. Shortly afterward, the band posted on social media, “It’s only a matter of time…” At the 00:09:05 mark, the numbers briefly glitched again, with several fans capturing and sharing the moment online. Some speculated that the numbers 9 and 5 hinted at September 5, which has now been confirmed as the date when more details will be revealed.
A message on LINKIN PARK’s official website simply reads: “Be part of something. September 5.”
Additionally, members of Linkin Park Underground (LPU), the official LINKIN PARK fan club, have reportedly received emails about an event in Los Angeles scheduled for the same day as the previously mentioned announcement. This exclusive event is open only to LPU members, with tickets being randomly distributed. The event is expected to occur between 12:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. local time.
According to a report by Billboard this past April, booking agency WME has been fielding offers for a potential 2025 reunion tour, which may include performances at various festivals.
