LINKIN Park fans have branded the band’s massive ticket prices ‘robbery’ ahead of their only UK gig.

With tickets set to go on general sale this Friday, early access prices for the band’s Wembley Stadium gig next June have sparked widespread frustration.

The band’s supporters have expressed outrage over the “absolutely ridiculous” costs, taking to Reddit to voice their frustration.

One fan shared a breakdown of the presale costs yesterday, leaving many shocked at the figures.

The premium “thrust” area tickets were priced at over £300, while front general standing cost £153.

Back standing tickets were slightly cheaper at £110, and seated areas were estimated to be around £89-£90.

The steep prices sparked debate on the platform, with fans sharing their disappointment.

One user commented, “Not a dig at LP in the slightest, but ticket prices are getting ridiculous.”

Another said, “Was up for this gig, but £300 for two tickets plus accommodation in and travel to London makes it a no-go now. Ah well.”

Some fans called for action, comparing the situation to The Cure frontman Robert Smith’s efforts to reduce Ticketmaster fees.

One argued, “The band could 100 percent step in and force Ticketmaster to lower the prices. Look at Robert Smith from The Cure; he essentially forced them to lower prices, and they did.”

For others, the cost was simply too high to justify.

Someone said, “£450 for three of us?! Nah, we’ll take a risk and hope they make an appearance at Download 2026 instead – better value for money if so.”

The band’s Wembley show marks a rare UK appearance for Linkin Park, whose lineup has undergone significant changes since the tragic loss of frontman Chester Bennington in 2017.

Mike Shinoda has since taken on more vocal duties, with the band occasionally enlisting guest artists to perform.

Linkin Park is known for massive hits like In the End, Numb, and Crawling.

The band has sold over 100 million records worldwide.

The Wembley show is part of a limited European tour, with stops in Germany, France, and the Netherlands before heading back to the US.

The news of the tour comes after Linkin Park annouced they were making a combeack earlier this year.

And the tour is named after their new album. From Zero, which is the first album since Chester passed away.

It will instead visit locations such as Mexico City, Tokyo, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Seattle, Buenos Aires and Rio De Janeiro.

Some of their European stops include Hanover, Berlin, Milan, Frankfurt, Paris, Arnhem and Gdynia.

Scottish fans were recently left fuming by their omission of a date in the country.

A mum has been forced to defend herself after admitting to only spending £75 on her children for Christmas despite wearing designer brands.

Sarah Fall, from Australia, took to social media to show off her haul of second-hand buys for her kids.

The mum-of-three revealed she gave herself a budget of £75 ($150) for Christmas presents this year – and planned to get all of them from the charity shops.

She replied to a comment that read: “Almost feels cruel spending $150 while mummy stands there in a Sabbi shirt lol.”

Sabbi is a popular brand of graphic T-shirts in Australia and cost around £50 or $100 for one – over half of her budget for her children’s Christmas gifts.

But Sarah hit back at the comment to defend herself.

She said: “I’ve gotten a few comments like this, ‘I’m in expensive clothing but I’m thrifting my kids Christmas presents.’

“I think when you put it like that, you’re essentially saying that my kids aren’t worth me spending money on or thrifting is less than buying new.”

But the mum revealed this couldn’t be further form the truth and that buying second-hand was more thoughtful.

“I actually find thrifting to be worth more because of the time and energy and effort I’m putting into each individual item I’m getting for my children,” she added.

She said it was much more meaningful trawling through the charity shops than just grabbing items of the shelf.

That being said, she then showed some of the second-hand gifts she recently picked up.

Her haul included a pair of Adidas Gazelles, a farm animal book, a doll and a new school bag.

The clip soon went viral over on her TikTok account @sarah_falls_ with over 423k views and 19k likes.

People were quick to take to the comments with many supporting the mum’s eco-friendly gifting.

One person wrote: “You would invest “time & effort” when buying new as well. How else would each present be curated esp for the ones you’re buying for? Let’s just say it for what it is & own it- you’re buying cheap.”

Another commented: “I really don’t understand why it matters, thrifted or not. I literally don’t remember half the stuff I got as gifts as a kid.”

“I think it’s a great idea. Kids get spoilt. You are putting so much thought plus recycling saves landfill,” penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: “Kids grow out of stuff so fast or get bored of toys. Thrifting is great for kids.”

“I love this idea!” claimed a fifth.

Someone else added: “Those are awesome finds.

SAUDI ARABIA have unveiled new pictures of the King Salman Stadium.

Planning is well underway for the new national team stadium, which is being designed by world leader Populous.

.

The stadium, which is scheduled to be completed by 2029, will boast a capacity of more than 92,000.

The Royal Commission for Riyadh City and the Ministry of Sports have released a projection of what the arena could look like, with the design “based on Saudi Arabia’s mesmerising natural landscape”.

The stadium will contain sports facilities, commercial areas and recreational facilities, with Saudi Arabia hopeful the ground could host international tournaments including the 2034 World Cup.

It will also contain a Royal Box, hospitality skyboxes and lounges, 300 VVIP seats, and 2,200 VIP seats, and will feature internal screens, gardens and a walking path on its roof with panoramic views of King Abdulaziz Park.

Saudi envision a state-of-the-art sports park containing an athletics stadium, an aquatics centre with an Olympic-sized swimming pool as well as several training pitches.

The stadium itself features a unique design with the external stands akin to leaves or even a broken up football pitch.

The concept is a germinating seed that breaks, “cracks the earth and emerges as a dynamic yet seemingly natural intervention”.

The idea is supposed to represent Saudi Arabia’s commitment to expanding sport in the country, from the grass roots to the elite level.

One projection of the stadium even shows the gaps in between the stands flowing out into paths surrounding the stadium, with Populous handed a big task to make the projection a reality.

However they have a proven track record having worked on Wembley, the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the 2022 World Cup final host Lusail Stadium.

THIS is the moment a huge Ukrainian car bomb killed one of Vladimir Putin’s top commanders in a fiery inferno.

The graphic video showed how the Russian naval commander Captain Valery Trankovsky was blown up, according to the country’s Federal Security Service.

Trankovsky , 47, was killed after his black Chevrolet Cruze drove over a road bump in occupied naval port Sevastopol in Crimea.

The commander was pulled out of the blazing car but he died.

Trankovsky’s legs had blasted off in the explosion and he died from “combined injuries and profuse blood loss.”

The commander has been the highest-ranking naval officer to be killed on the edge of Russia since the invasion started.

Trankovsky was the chief of staff of Vladimir Putin’s 41st brigade of missile ships and boats of the Black Sea Fleet.

The marine leader was previously accused by Ukraine of ordering naval missile strikes against civilians.

Two suspects have been arrested in connection to the 47-year-old’s death, on 13 November.

Vitaly Kulchitsky, 47, has been accused of planting the device on the vehicle.

His female accomplice, who was not named, was accused of spying on the car.

The duo were also charged with working for the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU).

The pair were also recorded by the Russian Federal Security Service as they appeared to admit their involvement in the plot.

A man, whose face was blurred, said he was originally from Lviv, Ukraine, but held a Russian passport.

He said: “My task was to liquidate a high-ranking serviceman in the city of Sevastopol.”

The detainee also said he planted the bomb under the car the night before and added that he had been recruited by the SBU.

An arrested woman claimed she was enlisted to the SBU while she was on holiday in the region.

She added: “When I arrived in Sevastopol on holiday, the [SBU] controller sent me a photo and the number of the car.

“I only watched it, what time it appeared, and what time it left.”

A Russian Federal Security Service’s source said Trankovsky was a “legitimate” target.

The Russian-installed governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev, issued a warning to those involved in Trankovsky’s death.

He said: “Non-humans, who dared to do this, await an obvious finale.”

EDGE OF WAR

The war between the two nations has intensified as Putin confirmed Russia was struck by long-range missiles fired by Ukraine.

This has been the first time Ukraine has used these weapons after Joe Biden lifted his ban on them for Volodymyr Zelenksy’s troops.

Kyiv used them to blitz a military depot storing ammunition and anti-aircraft missiles.
