A strange symbol mowed into a field near the Denver airport alarmed an airline passenger Tuesday, leading some to believe a Linkin Park announcement could be imminent.
Redditor u/SignalAfter shared a photo of a large shape in a field near the airport, showing what could be stylized “L” and “P” inside what appears to be a representation of an industrial gasket. Signal After captioning the post, “Flying into Denver this morning. Anyone know what this is???”
The image went viral online across social media and other subreddits, and many noted the similarity between the shape and the Linkin Park logo, with comments like, “Looks like Linkin Park in the middle of a front door speaker mount from a 2017 Subaru Crosstrek, but as a crop circle.” Others said, “Exhaust pipe gasket with Linkin Park logo in the middle.”
A Strive Health advertisement?
Suggesting another possibility, a comment said, “This is a custom ‘crop circle’ used as a massive advertisement for Strive Health, a kidney care company headquartered in Denver, Colorado,” without citing the source of their information. Responses noted that the image doesn’t match the Strive Health logo. We Got This Covered reached out to Strive Health for comment and will update this story if they reply.
Spanning approximately 53 square miles, Denver International Airport ranks among the most expansive landholdings in North American aviation. A significant portion of this territory remains undeveloped; instead, the airport leases roughly 16,000 acres to local agricultural operations for cultivating crops like sunflowers, wheat, corn, and millet.
Per FlyDenver.com, DEN is frequently linked to elaborate theories involving subterranean shelters and secret organizations. While these claims range from UFO connections to survivalist bunkers, the airport’s administration often takes a lighthearted approach, incorporating the myths into public displays.
However, officials continue to reiterate that there are logical, everyday explanations for these long-standing rumors.
Linkin Park Denver announcement?
So far in 2026, Linkin Park is very much active following their comeback with the “From Zero World Tour,” a global trek that began in 2024 and is scheduled to run through June 30, 2026, with shows across North America and elsewhere around the world.
But there’s no verified link between Linkin Park’s current activities and Denver specifically in 2026; while they played Denver’s Ball Arena in Sept. 2025 on the tour as part of the North American leg, there’s nothing publicly reported tying their new music or plans directly to the city this year.
Meanwhile, there is a neighborhood in Denver called Lincoln Park, but it is not near Denver International Airport (DEN). Lincoln Park (also known as La Alma‑Lincoln Park) is a historic urban neighborhood close to downtown Denver, known for its cultural heritage, the Santa Fe Arts District, and a mix of historic homes and galleries.
