Pearl Jam has announced their 2025 US tour supporting their album Dark Matter, implementing strict measures to combat ticket scalping and ensure fair pricing for fans.

The tour begins April 24 in Hollywood, FL, and concludes May 18 in Pittsburgh, PA. To maintain fair ticket prices, Pearl Jam has established several protective measures:

• Ten Club members-only pre-sale (active as of December 4)
• Non-transferable tickets where permitted
• 10% of tickets through PJ Premium to offset costs
• Fan-to-fan face value ticket exchange system
• Cancellation of tickets listed above face value on secondary markets

Pearl Jam 2025 US Tour Dates:

April

• 24 & 26 | Hard Rock Live — Hollywood, FL
• 29 | State Farm Arena — Atlanta, GA

May

• 01 | State Farm Arena — Atlanta, GA
• 06 & 08 | Bridgestone Arena — Nashville, TN
• 11 & 13 | Lenovo Center — Raleigh, NC
• 16 & 18 | PPG Paints Arena — Pittsburgh, PA

Public tickets will be available through Ticketmaster's Artist Pre-Sale starting December 13 at 10 AM local time. Fans can register for up to five concert dates until December 10 at 10 AM PT.

Pearl Jam's commitment to fair ticket pricing dates back to 1992 when they first challenged Ticketmaster's service fees. Notable actions include:

• 1993: Set maximum ticket price of $18 despite promoters suggesting $60
• 1994: Performed only at venues respecting their pricing limits
• 1995: Organized their own tour using non-Ticketmaster venues

For this tour, tickets will be mobile-only and restricted from transfer to protect against scalping. The fan-to-fan exchange requires a US bank account or debit card for selling tickets.
