Linkin Park are currently on a big European tour. A concert in Bern, Switzerland, was on the program for Friday, June 20. But shortly before the show begins Came the surprising news: Linkin Park must cancel the concert.
Around 4:30 p.m., just under half an hour before the planned admission to the stadium, the band published a statement on their official social media channels. The news hit many fans unexpectedly – some were already on the site or on the way there.
Concert statement a few minutes before admission
According to the Swiss News Portal Blick.ch, there was a announcement on the concert area an hour earlier. At this point, the fans present were informed that the show would not take place. The disappointment was great. There were scoops and long car -length visitors formed. Many of them had traveled from Germany or Italy. One writes on Facebook that he came flown in from Florida.
Medical emergency as a reason for the cancellation
Band apologizes to the fans
In her official statement, Linkin Park explained that a medical incident within the band made it impossible to appear in Bern. Linkin Park emphasized that the cancellation was not easy for them:
“We have to cancel the show with great regret this evening. We had a medical problem in the band and are unfortunately unable to appear this evening.”
The musicians, including Mike Shinoda and the new singer Emily Armstrong, were affected by the short -term decision and assured that Bern would not be forgotten.
Subsequent date planned as part of the 2026 European tour
The band announced that she would like to make up for the canceled concert in Bern as part of her planned Linkin Park European European 2026. The details of the date and venue are to be published in the coming days.
Fans who have already bought tickets for the event are to be contacted directly by the respective ticket providers – with information on reimbursements or reimbursement options.
Continuation of the tour not endangered
Despite the cancellation of the concert in Bern, the rest of the European tour in 2025 does not seem to be at risk. According to the current status, other planned appearances in cities such as Munich, Paris and Amsterdam are still on the calendar. It is to be hoped that the health situation within the band will quickly stabilize.
Fans are disappointed in social networks, but also express a lot of understanding and solidarity – especially with regard to possible health risks. A fan aptly writes: “For a band whose lead singers have committed suicide due to depression, this fan base is damn toxic. But have some consideration of how someone could feel in the face of these poisonous comments.”
