It will be the Seattle rock group's first show in Ireland since 2010.
Grunge icons Pearl Jam have announced a date in Dublin's Marlay Park on June 22, 2024, as part of their upcoming world tour.
Joining them will be former Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft and Irish post-punk band The Murder Capital.
The news follows swiftly after the band revealed that their twelfth studio album Dark Matter will be released on 19 April 2024.
The LP's accompanying titular single also dropped today, alongside a visualiser, prefacing the band's new sonic direction.
“I’m getting chills, because I have good memories," said frontman Eddie Vedder. "We’re still looking for ways to communicate. We’re at this time in our lives when you could do it or you could not do it, but we still care about putting something out there that is meaningful and we hopefully think is our best work. No hyperbole, I think this is our best work.”

Their global tour, hitting nine countries and 25 cities, kicks off at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, and will cover much of North America including shows at Wrigley Field, Madison Square Garden, Fenway Park, and their first hometown performance in six years at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena.
The tour continues with performances in the UK and Europe, including a performance at London’s state-of-the-art Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, followed by the group’s long-awaited ten-year return to New Zealand and Australia this November.
