Vedder Cup: May 16-18 at Petco Park and August 25-27 at T-Mobile Park

Introducing the Vedder Cup

We’re excited to partner with the San Diego Padres and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Eddie Vedder to officially designate our season series as the Vedder Cup. Starting in 2025, the winner of the series will take home the Vedder Cup trophy, designed by the Pearl Jam frontman himself.

2025 Dates

May 16-18 at Petco Park

August 25-27 at T-Mobile Park

As part of the annual series, we’re joining the Padres in support of the Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) Research Partnership, a charity co-founded by Eddie and Jill Vedder dedicated to funding research to discover treatments and cures for EB. Learn more at ebresearch.org.

  2. EV (short for Exit Velocity and Eddie Vedder) – If the clubs share an even run differential in the season series, the team with the highest exit velocity recorded on a hit will win the Vedder Cup.
