It's certainly a big day for fans of Green Day and announcements.

Not only did the punk icons reveal that their brand-new single The American Dream Is Killing Me is coming next week, but they subtly dropped the news that they're touring stadiums in the United States next year with Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid and The Linda Lindas. How's that for a line-up?!

While there has been no official word from the band online yet, fans at the band's intimate show last night in Vegas received flyers for the summer tour, which included the tantalising detail that the UK and Europe will be next.

Next year's stadium tour follows the incredible Hella Mega Tour with Fall Out Boy and Weezer, which wrapped up in Paris last year, and this new line-up looks just as impressive and ridiculously exciting.

Stay tuned to Kerrang! for full tour dates for the U.S. run, as well as UK and European tour news.
