The Dark Matter World Tour is an ongoing concert tour by the American rock band Pearl Jam. The tour began on May 4, 2024 at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada, and is scheduled to conclude 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 29th London show as well as their July 2nd and July 3rd 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 25th 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 5th 2024 as part of the band’s 2024 Ten Days of Pearl Jam countdown, and will have 10 shows focused on the Southeastern United States.[4][5]
