DENVER (Billboard) – U2 and YouTube have teamed up to broadcast a live stream of the band's Los Angeles-area concert this weekend via its YouTube channel.

The Sunday, October 25 show will take place at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. Any fan wishing to tune in from the 16 countries supported will be able to do so for free.

This is YouTube's second effort at live-streaming concerts. In August, it aired portions of the Outside Lands music festival in San Francisco. The U2 show will be the first start-to-finish live stream.

Like other live concert streams, portions will be archived and available for streaming after the event.
