Pearl Jam will give their more inpatient fans an opportunity to listen to the band’s new album Giganton ahead of time. The grunge legends recently announced that they are organizing a special audio-visual listening experience of the new album two days before the official release date.

Gigaton Listening Experience will be a one-day experience, taking place on March 25th in more than 200 Dolby Atmos theaters across the world. It will feature a high-quality playback of Gigaton in full alongside visuals curated and created by filmmaker and artist Evolve.

The full list of participating theaters is available on the group’s official website, while you can check out the trailer for the event below.

“It’s truly a unique way to experience this album,” said Gigaton producer Josh Evans. “I’m excited for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of these songs and performances.”

Gigaton will be Pearl Jam’s 11th studio album and their first since 2013’s Lightning Bolt. So far, the band presented two singles from the record; “Dance of the Clairvoyants” and “Superblood Wolfmoon.” Following the release of the record, the group will embark on a worldwide tour.
