It comes after the band scrapped the final gig of their n tour due to Tropical Cyclone Alfred.
As wild weather prepares to bear down on Queensland, the US punk superstars were forced to cancel their show at the Gold Coast’s Robina Stadium, also known as the Cbus Super Stadium, which was due to take place on Wednesday.
‘Hey , unfortunately due to circumstances out of our control, tomorrow’s Gold Coast show has been cancelled,’ the band posted to Instagram Stories on Tuesday evening.
‘With Cyclone Alfred bringing some seriously nasty weather, it’s just not possible to go ahead safely. We know this is a huge disappointment, and we’re just as bummed as you are. Stay safe out there!’
Robina Stadium also issues a statement, informing patrons: ‘Cbus Super Stadium has been advised that the Green Day Saviors concert has been cancelled, due to the extreme weather conditions forecast.
‘We know how excited fans were for the concert and we share your disappointment. Concert organisers explored every opportunity to go ahead with the event, but the safety and travel certainty of concert goers, performers and staff cannot be ensured under current conditions.’

Cyclone Alfred is expected to make landfall between Noosa and Brisbane on Thursday evening or early Friday, triggering destructive winds of up to 130km/h, heavy rainfall and flooding.
The storm, moving towards the densely populated region at 6km/h, is expected to be the first cyclone to impact the area in more than 70 years.
The worst of Alfred’s impact will hit the state’s southern flank, including Brisbane, the Gold Coast and NSW’s Northern Rivers.
It is predicted to bring days of heavy rainfall and deadly flash floods, with 400mm of rain forecast for Brisbane while the Gold Coast is expected to be hit with 450mm in just three days.
Green Day were Down Under as part of their Saviors tour.
They performed at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne on March 1st and ENGIE Stadium in Sydney on March 3rd.
Their Gold Coast show was originally intended to close out the tour on March 5th.
They will next head to Mumbai to headline day two of Lollapalooza India on March 9.

‘Don’t you want these f***ing politicians to shut the f*** up?’ he asked the crowd at Marvel Stadium.
‘Don’t you want Elon Musk to shut the f*** up? Don’t you want Donald Trump to shut the f*** up?
‘I’m not gonna get angry. F*** that shit,’ his explicit rant continued.
