Show Notes
- Colin came out and met fans at the front barricade before the show.
- The From Zero countdown song for this show was "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" Eiffel 65.
- After "Crawling", Mike told the crowd, "Hell yeah, you guys are amazing!"
- The fans chanted "From Zero" after "New Divide". Mike said, "Thank you guys so much! Real quick, just wanted to say thank you guys so much for the support on the new music, you guys have been incredible." The band did not play the full "From Zero (Intro)" before "The Emptiness Machine" but seems to accidentlly have played just the "Oh wait your fir-" very ending of the track before "The Emptiness Machine" started.
- The confetti on "The Catalyst" was launched with just a few seconds left in the song.
- As usual when "New Divide" is also in the setlist, there was no "Moscow Intro" on "Cut The Bridge".
- "From The Inside" was performed two shows in a row in different parts of the set, as well as "Over Each Other" and "Stained".
- The beginning of Joe's Solo was extended out a bit.
- Mike went down to the crowd on his solo ("When They Come For Me" / "Remember The Name"). Mike saw that a lot of people in the front of the crowd were not from Abu Dhabi so he asked who was from the area; he then selected a local fan to give the signed hat to. He rapped verse 3 of "Until It Breaks" over the medley.
- Before "Given Up", Mike said, "You guys know how to party!" He got the crowd to clap in sync a few times, before starting them on the "Given Up" clapping.
- Mike played the guitar riff of "Enjoy The Silence" by Depeche Mode on his synth during the extended intro of "Overflow".
- There was no "Control Colin" game for "Numb" at this show, but Colin added extra drums to the "Numb/Encore" intro.
- The band played the "Stranger Things" theme as the intro of "In The End".
- Mike rapped verse 1 of "A Place For My Head" over the extended bridge of "Bleed It Out".
Other Notes
- This show was announced on August 27, 2025.
- Linkin Park's only previous show in Abu Dhabi came for the Formula 1 Grand Prix in November 2010, which was held on Yas Island near the Etihad Arena.

- The opening band for the show, PeachPuffs, was announced the week of the show on January 15, 2026.
- Linkin Park hosted via the Linkin Park Underground a From Zero Night event for local fans on January 19, 2026, the night before the show. Of note, the From Zero "LP" logo used in the photoshoot of the album's deluxe edition, from January 2025, was at the event for fans to see.
