Pearl Jam were due to head out on a 17 date UK and European tour in 2020, but due to coronavirus restrictions, they had to follow in the footsteps of many other artists and push back their shows until 2021. Now the legendary grunge-rockers are being forced to postpone their tour for yet another year, and will be returning in 2022.
Unfortunately, this means that their two night scheduled appearance at this year’s British Summer Time event at Hyde Park is also being moved. In a statement, the organization said “It is with a heavy heart that we announce that BST Hyde Park will not take place in July 2021. We are however happy to share that Duran Duran and Pearl Jam will go ahead in July 2022.”
Tickets purchased for these UK and European Pearl Jam shows will remain valid, and fans who will no longer be able to attend the following year will need to head to their point of purchase for a refund.
