U2 and YouTube are teaming up to let fans watch the band's live concert via the popular online video sharing website, according to Variety. The band will stream their Los Angels concert free on October 25 on YouTube.

The concert will take place Sunday at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena at 8:30 p.m. The broadcast will be live and available in the U.S., England, France, Canada, Italy, Spain, Japan, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Mexico, India, Israel, South Korea and the Netherlands.

The band made the official announcement Tuesday via their blog. "The band has wanted to do something like this for a long time," said U2 manager Paul McGuinness. "As we're filming the L.A. show, it's the perfect opportunity to extend the party beyond the stadium. Fans often travel long distances to come to see U2 -- this time U2 can go to them, globally."
