Green Day will be headlining the Main Stage of Belgium's Rock Werchter on the opening day of the festival which takes place next year from Thursday 4th to Sunday 7th July.

Green Day
The American punk rock band that formed in 1987 consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist and backing vocalist Mike Dirnt, drummer Tre Cool and guitarist and backing vocalist Jason White. This is Green Days second confirmed appearance at a festival in 2013, the other being PinkPop.

Belgium's biggest rock festival for 140,000 people offers four days of varied international well known acts across three main stages in a well organised commercial festival setting in the small village of Werchter in Rotselaar, Belgium.

Friday headliners, and Saturday headliners Rammstein are the only other acts confirmed. For the line-up details as available please click here.

For four whole days the very best can be seen and heard on three stages in the Festivalpark. Established artists, today's and yesterday's heroes and the big sensations take to the Main Stage as usual. The Pyramid Marquee hosts all flavours of electronic dance on Thursday and Friday. And then it's the upcoming talent, the more intimate performances and dance beats into the small hours on Saturday and Sunday. In the Barn, it will be nice to see old friends, but discover tomorrow's heroes.

Ticket prices have not yet been announced and go on sale on Friday 2nd November 2012, and eFestivals will have links to buy them then.
