The Foo Fighters Jakarta Tour 2025 is not just a standalone concert — it’s a key stop on the band’s much-anticipated Asia Tour 2025, making headlines across the region.
With confirmed dates in Tokyo, Bangkok, Manila, and Singapore, the Jakarta performance positions Indonesia as a critical destination on the global rock map. Fans across Southeast Asia are flying in just to catch this performance — Jakarta’s only show for the tour.
🗣️ “Jakarta is finally getting the rock spotlight it deserves, and Foo Fighters are bringing the thunder.”
🎤 Why Jakarta?
Indonesia has long been known for its passionate music fan base, especially when it comes to rock and alternative genres. The country’s recent push in building world-class event infrastructure and streamlining ticketing policies has opened the door to international acts returning at scale.
Jakarta’s inclusion on this tour shows the band’s recognition of this rising energy — and it’s a nod to fans who have waited for over a decade for Foo Fighters to return to Indonesia.
🔥 Band Legacy, Fan Anticipation & Cultural Significance
Formed in 1994 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl, Foo Fighters are Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees known for blending alternative, post-grunge, and hard rock into anthemic live shows. From “Everlong” to “The Pretender”, their songs are stadium-shaking experiences.
🤘 Indonesia’s Foo Fan Base
Indonesian fans have been actively campaigning on social media for Foo Fighters’ return since their last Asia tour. Jakarta was trending on Twitter the week the 2025 Asia Tour was announced — a reflection of how deeply connected the local fan base is.
📲 “We finally did it! Foo Fighters are coming back!” — A viral tweet with 70K+ likes following the tour reveal
For Indonesian rock lovers, this concert is more than a show — it’s a cultural moment.

The scale of this concert is expected to have positive ripple effects on Jakarta’s entertainment economy.
📈 Local Benefits Include:
