Pulp closed End Of The Road festival's mainstage in Dorset on 5 September 2026 with a career-spanning set that frontman Jarvis Cocker described as their "last one for a while" – though he stressed it was "not for ever". The performance marked the end of the band's 2026 tour and was notable for reviving numerous rarely-played tracks, including the live debut of "Deep Fried In Kelvin" from 1995's "Different Class", some 30 years after the album's release.

The setlist featured several songs not performed in decades, such as "The Mark of the Devil" and "Death II" (last played in 1992), "Forever in My Dreams" (last played in 2000) and "We Are the Boyz" (last performed publicly in 1998). Cocker also led the crowd in "Happy Birthday" to mark the festival's 20th anniversary, while a slideshow of the band's history played behind them. The gig comes as Pulp prepare to release a concert film, "What Do You Do For An Encore?", in cinemas and on MUBI from 18 September, alongside a live album capturing their sold-out O2 shows from last summer.
