Pearl Jam is hitting the road again, because let’s face it—what else would they be doing? The grunge pioneers who gave us Ten, soundtracked every 90s kid’s angst, and survived the Ticketmaster wars of the 90s are back for a 2025 U.S. tour. This time, they’re celebrating their 12th studio album, Dark Matter, released in 2024. If you thought Eddie Vedder was going to settle into a life of sipping wine on the Amalfi Coast, think again. This band thrives on touring, and they’re bringing their gritty rock wisdom to fans across five cities next spring.
Starting on April 24 in Hollywood, Florida, at Hard Rock Live, the Dark Matter tour will make its way through Atlanta, Nashville, Raleigh, and wrap up in Pittsburgh on May 18. The full lineup of supporting acts hasn’t been revealed yet, but you can bet Vedder and company will be joined by artists who know how to bring the heat. And if history is any indicator, Pearl Jam will probably do what they do best—show up, blow your mind, and remind you why they’re still the kings of live rock and roll.
Tickets go on sale soon, but here’s a heads-up: Ten Club members (you know, the diehards who’ve been with them since flannel shirts were cutting-edge fashion) get first dibs starting Dec. 5. General ticket sales kick off on Dec. 13 through Ticketmaster—yes, irony alert. After famously battling Ticketmaster in the 90s, it seems Pearl Jam has made peace with their old nemesis. Either that, or they’ve realized it’s easier to tour than wage a corporate war.
For fans, Dark Matter is already shaping up to be another iconic chapter in Pearl Jam’s saga. The album debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 earlier this year and the title track has dominated rock airwaves, topping the Rock & Alternative Airplay and Mainstream Rock Airplay charts. It’s a testament to Pearl Jam’s staying power—they don’t just make music; they make history.
So, dust off your Doc Martens, grab your tickets, and get ready to scream along to “Jeremy” and the new hits. Pearl Jam isn’t just taking a victory lap—they’re proving they’ve still got the energy to keep rocking after all these years.
