The trio, comprised of Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tré Cool, will be supported by fellow American punk-rock band The Offspring.

“Book your tickets early because we fully expect this show to sell out”

“My advice to those fans wishing to watch this historic event is to book your tickets early because we fully expect this show to sell out.”
