Pulp roll back the years with their not-so-secret set at Glastonbury 2025
After years of rumours, the band finally make their return to the Pyramid.

Since reuniting in 2022, every Glasto secret set has been greeted with hushed whispers and fervent hopes that Jarvis and co would finally be making their return to the farm. 2022 - no Pulp, 2023 - no Pulp, 2024? Nope, still not there. As you may have guessed from this preamble (and the giant PULP headline which is presumably hovering a few centimetres above this sentence), 2025 was the year that everyone’s prayers were finally answered. Fictional band Patchwork turn out to instead be a very real group of britpop legends. And 30 years after their legendary Stone-Roses-replacement headliner slot, too.
Opening with festival anthem ‘Sorted for E's and Whizz’, the band are on top form, playing a flawless set of absolute anthems to a crowd so big it feels like the whole festival have turned out to see them. ‘This is Pulp’ Jarvis says, ‘sorry to those who were expecting Patchwork.’
