The concert, titled Foo Fighters: Live in Jakarta, will take place at Carnaval Ancol, North Jakarta, and is being organised by the promoter Ravel Entertainment.
According to Ravel Entertainment’s CEO, Ravel Junardy, Jakarta has been selected as the first stop on the Foo Fighters’ 2025 tour before the band continues on to Singapore.
“THE MOMENT IS HERE! Rock legends Foo Fighters are heading to Jakarta for a massive show at Carnaval Ancol on October 2, 2025,” announced Ravel Entertainment via Instagram on Tuesday, 20 May 2025.

Interestingly, the initiative for the Jakarta concert reportedly came from the band themselves. As reported by Kompas.com, Ravel revealed during a press conference in the Kebayoran Baru area, South Jakarta, that Foo Fighters had made the first move.
“Yes, so a month before Green Day (announced the concert), they (Foo Fighters) contacted [us]. At first, I didn’t know if it was really Foo Fighters or not, but after checking, it turned out that they really wanted to go to Jakarta,” he explained.
This upcoming concert marks the Foo Fighters’ second appearance in Indonesia, following their first visit in 1996.
