Green Day is heading down under next year for a multi-date stadium tour.
The Rock Hall-inducted rock trio’s The Saviors Tour will swing into Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium on March 1, followed by Engie Stadium in Sydney on March 3, and wrap March 5 at CBUS Super Stadium, on the Gold Coast.
Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool will play in full Dookie, which this year marks its 30th anniversary, and American Idiot, celebrating its 20th year. The set list will include cuts from Saviors, their 14th and latest album, and hits from across their career.
West Coast rockers AFI is the support, marking their first dates in Australia since 2017.
“We’ve never been more excited to unleash new music than with Saviors, a record that’s meant to be rocked live, together,” reads a statement from Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool. “And we cannot wait to return to Australia, it’s been way too long. So let’s thrash.”
Live Nation and Triple M are presenting the Australian leg of Green Day’s world tour.
Green Day is always welcome in Australia. Earlier this year, Saviors arrived at No. 2 on the ARIA Chart, for the rockers’ 12th top 10 album here. Three of those LPs led the national chart: Dookie (in 1994), American Idiot (2004) and Father Of All Motherf—ers (2020).
The California band was last booked to play Australia and New Zealand in 2020 for the four-date Hella Mega Tour, also featuring Fall Out Boy and Weezer. That run, however, was cancelled due to the pandemic. The Saviors Tour will be their first visit to these parts since 2017, in support of Revolution Radio.
Green Day’s Saviors Tour made headlines last week when their performance at Comerica Park in Detroit was paused when a unauthorized drone was reportedly spotted hovering within sight of the stage. The bandmates were pulled from the stage, mid-song, returning 10 minutes later.
