Projekt Revolution is an annual concert tour headlined by Linkin Park. The tour has historically taken place exclusively in the United States, although the 2007 tour includes a planned stop in Toronto. Its main focus is to bring together top names in rock and hip-hop in order to bridge the gap between these two music styles (much as Linkin Park does with their own music). In its first three years, Projekt Revolution brought together almost twenty different performers including Adema, Cypress Hill, Korn, Snoop Dogg, and Mudvayne.

In 2004, the tour featured two stages, the Revolution Stage and the Main Stage. It was also somewhat less dominated by hip-hop.

Main Stage

Revolution Stage

Occasionally, a show would have DJ Z-Trip as the master of ceremonies.

For this year's tour, Linkin Park decided to make the tour green by donating $1 of every ticket to American Forests and using biodiesel on a majority of their buses, eliminating an estimated 350 tons of carbon emissions.[1] There will also be informative booths that will show concert goers how to lower their greenhouse gas emissions.[2]

The band Art of Chaos has been added for the San Bernardino show (7/28).here
