It’s the moment all emo kids have been waiting for. Green Day will bring their The Saviours Tour to London this summer, celebrating 30 years of Dookie and 20 years of American Idiot. Chuck on your baseball shirt, spike up your hair and get ready to scream to pop-punk emo bangers like ‘Basket Case’, ‘Jesus of Suburbia’ and, of course, ‘Boulevard of Broken Dreams’.
The last time Green Day played a gig in the Big Smoke they appeared for a secret set at a random Covent Garden pub. Pretty cool stuff. But this is the chance to catch them in a proper stadium show.

What’s Wembley Stadium’s bag policy?
Each person attending the show is only allowed one bag, no bigger than an A4 piece of paper. Wembley is pretty strict with its bag policy, so check the specific dimensions here to avoid being denied entry to the stadium.
Certain items are obviously banned, primarily anything that could be used as a weapon including aerosol cans and hard metal water bottles. You can bring clear, soft, empty water bottles. There's a full list of what you can and can't bring into the stadium here.
Everyone is subject to security checks too, so make sure you leave plenty of time.
