Linkin Park have announced a tribute concert in honor of their late frontman Chester Bennington, who died by suicide in July. The concert will be held at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on Oct. 27.
The band will not only perform in their first appearance since Bennington's death, they have enlisted other artists to pay tribute as well, though names have yet to be announced. All proceeds from the show will be donated in Bennington's honor to Music For Relief's One More Light Fund.

Linkin Park released the music video for their song "One More Light" ahead of their Hollywood Bowl performance, also in honor of Bennington's memory.

"It has been incredibly emotional to work on this, and especially to watch it. I feel that by doing it, we not only faced some of our biggest fears, but it enabled us to use our talents to bring some light to people that need it," said Linkin Park band member Joe Hahn. "As we move forward to the Hollywood Bowl show and beyond, I think about the people that connect with the band, outside and inside our circle. This video is a gesture of good will to the people that want that connection."
