PEARL JAM HEADS SOUTH, EAST FOR 2025 SHOWS

On the back of three Grammy nominations for its 2024 Monkeywrench/Republic album Dark Matter, Pearl Jam (WME) will play doubles in five U.S. cities next spring.

The band will visit arenas in Hollywood, Florida (4/24, 26), Atlanta (4/29, 5/1), Nashville (5/6, 8), Raleigh, North Carolina (5/11, 13) and Pittsburgh (5/16, 18). Tickets go on sale 12/13.

The Live Nation-promoted run comes after nearly 40 international shows this year in support of Dark Matter, which was produced by Andrew Watt and is up for Best Rock Album, Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance.

Pearl Jam is celebrating the impending holiday season with its annual 10 Days of PJ drops, which have so far included live videos, fundraisers for a chance to win autographed memorabilia and year-end music, film and book recommendations from bassist Jeff Ament.
