Pulp Reschedules All 2025 Tour Dates Amidst Production Delays and Health Concerns
In a surprising turn of events, iconic Britpop band Pulp has officially announced the rescheduling of all their 2025 tour dates. The news, confirmed via the band’s social media channels and website, comes just months before their highly anticipated global tour in support of their upcoming album More, which was set to be their first studio release in over two decades.
The announcement cited a combination of unforeseen production delays and minor health concerns affecting key crew members, prompting the band to make the difficult decision. “We are heartbroken to announce the rescheduling of all dates on our 2025 tour,” the statement reads. “We want to ensure that our performances match the level of energy and quality our fans deserve. Safety and excellence come first.”
The tour, originally scheduled to kick off in Glasgow on June 7, 2025, and wrap up in Los Angeles in late September, included major cities like Dublin, London, Manchester, New York, Toronto, and Los Angeles. Pulp was also slated to perform at high-profile festivals such as Tramlines in Sheffield and Bilbao BBK Live in Spain. With the rescheduling, all events have been temporarily removed from ticket platforms, with organizers working swiftly to confirm new dates.
Fans have been reassured that all previously purchased tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled shows. Refunds will also be available for those unable to attend the new dates. Lead singer Jarvis Cocker personally addressed fans in a video, saying, “We’re incredibly sorry to have to delay, but we’re working hard behind the scenes to make sure this tour is even more unforgettable. Thank you for your understanding and loyalty.”
The new tour schedule is expected to be announced in the coming weeks. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned to Pulp’s official website and social media for updates.
This setback hasn’t dimmed excitement for More, which is still on track for release on June 6, 2025. The album’s first single “Spike Island” has already garnered positive buzz, with critics praising it as a nostalgic yet refreshing return to form for the band.
Despite the delay, anticipation remains high for what is set to be a triumphant chapter in Pulp’s storied legacy.
