Green Day’s upcoming American Idiot Broadway musical, which official opens April 20th at New York’s St. James Theatre, won’t be the only venue to hear the band’s music live this summer. The 21st Century Breakdown trio have announced a fresh tour that kicks off August 3rd in Camden, New Jersey. AFI will open and tickets start going on sale March 26th via Live Nation.

For the trek, Green Day will offer up all-inclusive ticket prices, meaning that no extra fees of any kind will be added on. Plus, at some venues, there will be a limited number of lawn seats priced at $20 when the tix go on sale to the general public. One thing to keep an eye on: Just two dates into the tour, Green Day have allotted themselves a nice four-day break between an August 5th show in Buffalo, New York and an August 9th concert in Alpharetta, Georgia. What’s going on August 6th through 8th, you ask? The Lollapalooza festival in Chicago. Green Day have been rumored to be one of the headliners at the annual fest, so Windy City fans should pencil those dates into their calendar. Lollapalooza will officially announce its lineup on April 6th, per Perry Farrell’s Twitter.
The band promises to add more dates to their initial itinerary in the near future.
