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 band is offering tickets primarily through their Ten Club members-only pre-sale, available to paid members active as of December 4. Public tickets will be available through Ticketmaster's Artist Pre-Sale, with registration open until December 10 at 10 AM PT. The general pre-sale begins December 13 at 10 AM local time.

Key Anti-Scalping Measures:

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

Tour Dates 2025:

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 continues Pearl Jam's long-standing commitment to fair ticket pricing, dating back to their 1992 protest against Ticketmaster's service fees. The band has historically taken strong stands, including:

• Setting maximum ticket prices of $18 in 1993
• Canceling their 1994 summer tour over service fee disputes
• Organizing their own tour in 1995 using non-Ticketmaster venues

Supporting acts for the 2025 tour will be announced at a later date. Fans requiring ticket refunds will have access to a face-value ticket exchange system, requiring a US bank account or debit card for transactions.
