I’m one of those people who likes to go into a concert knowing what to expect. Whilst many would argue that researching the setlist beforehand ruins the surprise, I would argue it prepares you. For those who sit in a similar category to me, this article was written for you.
American rock icons Green Day are soon heading back to Australia, and while the official setlist hasn’t been confirmed, we’ve got a solid idea of what fans can expect. Based on recent shows, the band will likely mix Dookie and American Idiot staples with deep cuts and tracks from their latest album Saviors.
With over 30 years in the game, Green Day know how to craft a setlist that keeps fans engaged from start to finish. Their upcoming Aussie dates will be no different. While it’s impossible to predict exactly what they’ll play, here’s a strong contender for what might be on the cards.
Green Day Likely Setlist for Australia 2025:
- ‘The American Dream Is Killing Me’
- ‘Basket Case’
- ‘Longview’
- ‘Welcome to Paradise’
- ‘She’
- ‘When I Come Around’
- ‘Know Your Enemy’
- ‘Hitchin’ a Ride’
- ‘Dilemma’
- ‘21 Guns’
- ‘Minority’
- ‘Brain Stew’
- ‘American Idiot’
- ‘Holiday’
- ‘Boulevard of Broken Dreams’
- ‘Are We the Waiting’
- ‘St. Jimmy’
- ‘Give Me Novacaine’
- ‘Letterbomb’
- ‘Wake Me Up When September Ends’
- ‘Jesus of Suburbia’
- ‘Bobby Sox’
- ‘Last Night on Earth’
- ‘Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)’
This mix of tracks covers nearly every corner of Green Day’s discography. Fans of their early punk roots will get Dookie classics like ‘Basket Case’ and ‘Welcome to Paradise’, while American Idiot devotees can expect the full theatrical experience with tracks like ‘St. Jimmy’, ‘Give Me Novacaine’, and ‘Jesus of Suburbia’. There’s also room for their latest material, with ‘The American Dream Is Killing Me’ and ‘Bobby Sox’ making an appearance.
Of course, setlists are never set in stone. Plus, Green Day have a habit of throwing in surprises, so don’t be shocked if they swap out a song or two along the way. I’ll see you there.
