The Offspring have a tour history dating back to at least 1986, when they were a local act, playing in small clubs. Since then, the band has played in all types of venues, including small clubs, theaters, sports arenas and stadiums, and participated some of the largest music festivals in the world. The Offspring have toured and played shows every year except for 2006.

Note that on each tour, The Offspring's line-up has featured Dexter Holland, Noodles and Greg K. (except for some shows on their 2008 European tour, where Face to Face's Scott Shiflett filled in for him). The band has switched drummers numerous times; James Lilja played drums on their pre-1987 gigs before he was replaced by Ron Welty. Welty would play on all of the band's tours/shows from 1987 to 2002. He left the band in 2003 and was replaced by Atom Willard, who was eventually replaced by Pete Parada in 2007.
