Pearl Jam is returning to the road.

The rock band will spend spring and summer on tour in North America, kicking things off on April 8 at the BB&T Center in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. From there they’ll play arenas, stadiums and festivals, with multiple-night runs set for Philadelphia, New York, Boston and Chicago.

Aside from a one-off date this past September in Central Park as a part of the Global Citizen Festival, Pearl Jam hasn’t played in the United States since 2014, when they were touring in support of their 2013 release “Lightning Bolt.” Last year, they played several dates in South America and Mexico.

Pearl Jam’s tour is another big outing for the 2016 concert industry. Just today, Stingand Peter Gabriel announced a joint tour. Other big tours scheduled for this year include Justin Bieber, the Dixie Chicks, and Kenny Chesney.
