<br>
The trio will perform Manchester Lancashire County Cricket Ground on Wednesday, June 16 and Wembley Stadium on Saturday, June 19. They have also lined up a show at Parc Des Princes in Paris seven days later. <br>

Speaking to NME.COM about the concerts ahead of their final UK show at Wembley Arena last night, frontman Billie Joe Armstrong said: "Playing Wembley Stadium is kind one of those moments in your career when you just go holy shit! <br>
<br>
"It's going to be great because Wembley has a long tradition of rock concerts with the likes of U2 , Foo Fighters and Muse playing here in the past and we're just happy to be part of that. It'll be great to play in Manchester too." <br>
<br>
The singer said he'd also like to bring their musical 'American Idiot' over to the UK at some stage. <br>
<br>
"We'd love to bring it to London , it'd be great," he said. "We'd have it right next door to 'Thriller' ." <br>
<br>
The production, which features the album in its entirety as a soundtrack and songs from their current album '21st Century Breakdown' , has already been staged at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre in California and the band are hoping to bring it to Broadway in New York . <br>
<br>
Meanwhile Green Day rounded off their current UK dates, playing a surprise show as the Foxboro Hot Tubs in London last night (November 1). <br>
