What exactly do you do for an encore? Well, following several teases from Jarvis Cocker in recent months he has answered the question; Pulp have announced they are reuniting for UK Tour dates in 2023!
Cocker said: “Three months ago, we asked, What exactly do you do for an encore? Well … An encore happens when the crowd makes enough noise to bring the band back to the stage. So … We are playing in the UK & Ireland in 2023. Therefore … Come along & make some noise.”
The tour begins in Yorkshire on May 26th next year at Bridlington Spa before they take to the road for a series of outdoor shows and festivals. Pulp will be headlining Suffolk’s Latitude Festival, Glasgow’s TRNSMT, the Neighbourhood Weekender in Warrington, and also performing a huge show at Finsbury Park in London.
Pulp will also be heading to Ireland for a performance at St Anne’s Park in Dublin. Furthermore, there will be a performance at Scarborough’s Open Air Theatre, two hometown gigs at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield, and a show in Cardiff.
Tickets for Pulp’s 2023 dates will go on sale at 9am on November 4th.
