Pearl Jam concert chronology

The Dark Matter World Tour was a concert tour by the American rock band Pearl Jam in support of their twelfth studio album Dark Matter. The tour began on May 4, 2024, at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada, and concluded on May 18, 2025, at the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, United States.

The first leg of the tour consisted of eleven shows on the West Coast. The second leg of the tour, focused in Europe, originally had 9 scheduled shows, however, their June 29 London show as well as their July 2 and July 3 shows in Berlin were cancelled due to illness in the band. The third leg returned to North America with a mix of shows in the East Coast, Midwest, and Western United States. On July 25, 2024, Pearl Jam announced they would be playing two shows at the band run Ohana Festival which would be added at the end of the third leg of the tour.[3] The fourth leg of the tour went to Oceania, featuring shows in New Zealand and Australia. The fifth leg of the tour was announced on December 5, 2024, with additional date on the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival on January 15, 2025, and consisted of 11 shows focused on the Southeastern United States.[4][5]

The tour was the band's last to feature longtime drummer Matt Cameron, who announced his departure from the group in July 2025.

Seattle band Deep Sea Diver were the openers for leg one. The Murder Capital and Richard Ashcroft both opened for the band on the second leg. Glen Hansard opened on the third leg of the tour, and the fourth leg was opened by Pixies for every show on the leg, and Liam Finn, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, and Cosmic Psychos for select shows.[6][7]
