\n\tGreen Day<\/a> were forced to cancel the final Australian stop on their global Saviors stadium tour on Wednesday (March 5) due to Tropical Cyclone Alfred. As citizens hunkered down in anticipation of imminent landfall, the veteran punk band informed fans that the show at CBUS Super Stadium had been called off amid severe weather warnings for Brisbane and the Gold Coast.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHey Australia, unfortunately due to circumstances out of our control, tomorrow\u2019s Gold Coast show has been cancelled,\u201d they wrote on their Instagram Stories. \u201cWith Cyclone Alfred bringing some seriously nasty weather, it\u2019s just not possible to go ahead safely. We know this is a huge disappointment, as we\u2019re just as bummed as you are. Stay safe out there!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a series of statements, the venue first warned ticket holders on Monday that they were monitoring forecasts calling for \u201cwindy and rainy<\/a>\u201d conditions, encouraging fans to keep an eye on the weather in the coming days. The bad news arrived on Tuesday evening (Australian time), when the venue wrote on X, \u201cCBS Super Stadium has been advised that the the Green Day Saviors concert has been cancelled, due to the extreme weather conditions forecast.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIt continued, \u201cWe 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.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tPromoter Live Nation also posted about the show\u2019s cancellation<\/a>, writing, \u201cWe understand the immense disappointment surrounding the cancellation of tomorrow\u2019s Green Day show on the Gold Coast due to Cyclone Alfred.\u00a0This decision was made in close consultation with local authorities and with Green Day, prioritising the safety of all involved.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tLN also explained why the show was called off instead of postponed. \u201cDue to Green Day\u2019s international touring schedule it will not be possible to reschedule the Gold Coast show to a later date,\u201d LN added, with ticket holders promised a full refund. Green Day \u2014 who last visited Australia in 2017 on their Revolution Radio<\/em> tour \u2014 are slated to play Lollapalooza India on Sunday (March 9).<\/p>\n

\n\tCyclone Alfred is expected to be the first extreme storm to impact the Queensland area in more than half a century, with expected wind speeds exceeding 80 m.p.h.<\/a> and up to 17 inches of rainfall over the next three days.<\/p>\n
