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 includes ten shows across five cities, with special anti-scalping measures in place. Ten Club members who were active before December 4 get first access through an exclusive pre-sale. Public tickets will be available through Ticketmaster's Artist Pre-Sale starting December 13 at 10 AM local time.

Key Anti-Scalping Measures:

• Mobile-only tickets with restricted transfers
• Fan-to-fan face value ticket exchange system
• Cancellation of tickets listed above face value on secondary markets
• Approximately 10% of tickets sold through PJ Premium to offset costs

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

This approach continues Pearl Jam's long-standing fight against inflated ticket prices, dating back to their 1992 conflict with Ticketmaster over service fees. The band has historically taken strong stances, including canceling their 1994 summer tour rather than accepting high service fees, and organizing their own tours at non-Ticketmaster venues to maintain fair pricing for fans.

To participate in the fan-to-fan exchange, sellers must have a valid U.S. bank account or debit card. Supporting acts for the tour dates will be announced later.
