OK "Nimrod," it's time to dust off your Doc Martens and vest covered in patches to join "She," the "Jesus of Suburbia" and the rest of the Green Day fans who are "Welcome to Paradise" in Philadelphia this summer.

The iconic pop punkers are returning to Citizens Bank Park in August 2024 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their seminal album "Dookie" and 20th anniversary of the Broadway-worthy "American Idiot" on The Saviors Tour.

How about this for a "Time Bomb" of nostalgia "Today." Bill Corgan's The Smashing Pumpkins, fellow Bay Area punk stars Rancid and The Linda Lindas will open the stadium show.

Here's your guide to grabbing tickets when they go on sale so you won't be "Pulling Teeth" trying to figure out how to see Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool take that stage:

When is the Green Day, The Smashing Pumpkins and Rancid 'Holiday' coming to Philly?

"We’ve never been more excited to unleash new music than with 'Saviors,' a record that’s meant to be rocked live, together," Green Day said while announcing the tour. "So let’s thrash. We’ve got some amazing friends who are coming along for the ride!"

The "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" leads to Citizens Bank Park in South Philadelphia on Friday, Aug. 9, 2024, Live Nation and the Phillies announced this week.
