The year 2011 marks the 20th anniversary of Pearl Jam, one of the most influential bands of the 1990s. To celebrate, the band has announced a Canadian tour – with special guests Mudhoney – for September of this year.

Each ticket sold to all shows will see $2 donated to the Vitalogy Foundation, which grants funds to non-profit organizations chosen personally by the members of Pearl Jam.

In 2005, Pearl Jam toured Canada extensively, performing in 17 cities nationwide. The band cemented a special relationship with their Canadian fans, selling out arenas from coast to coast.

The year 2011 will represent a yearlong celebration of Pearl Jam’s rich 20-year history. The band kicked-off the year with the release of a new live compilation, Live on Ten Legs, followed by expanded reissues of Vs. and Vitalogy in March.

In addition to the Canadian tour, September brings Pearl Jam’s 20th anniversary weekend concert to Alpine Valley followed by the debut of Cameron Crowe’s film, Pearl Jam Twenty, accompanied by the release of a book and soundtrack album. Interspersed between these PJ20 highlights will be a number of special events.
