It’s a good time to be a Green Day fan! Following a smaller tease of an announcement with flyers at a surprise When We Were Younger Festival aftershow, the upcoming stadium tour for next summer and fall has been revealed in full force in tandem with their fourteenth studio album, Saviors. Correlating with the anniversaries of acclaimed albums Dookie and American Idiot (30th and 20th, respectively), the band will be celebrating releases of past and present.
The Saviors Tour will start in the EU/UK early summer 2024, hitting a few festivals along the way. Openers for the first leg will include Nothing But Thieves, The Hives, Donots, Maid of Ace (on select dates), and a past opener from Hella Mega Tour: The Interrupters. North America will have their turn starting in late July 2024, with openers The Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, and rising young rockers The Linda Lindas. With a stacked lineup for each leg, fans are in for a treat regardless of their show’s location.
In conjunction with the tour and album announcement, Green Day released their second single from Saviors: Look Ma, No Brains! Following lead single The American Dream Is Killing Me, it’s a punk rager from end to end. Full of thrashing guitars, brash drums, and Armstrong’s classic vocal delivery, Green Day is back at its roots, yet revived for the new age of outcasts and deviants. Capping out at just over two minutes, the band pushes harder than their last single in a neat package. Saviors expands on where they left off with 2020’s Father of All… and brings it into the landscape of 2023 with efficiency.
Off the heels of the smash Hella Mega Tour and a few festival appearances to boot, there are no signs of Green Day slowing down. This far into their musical careers, it’s evident that they’re built to last; both in musicality and in filling stadiums. Summer looks rockin’.
Tickets for the Saviors tour are available now.
