Guice, previously touted as a “secret headliner,” is scheduled to appear on Woods’ stage on Thursday (September 3). This will be the band’s second appearance at Dorset Festival, following their appearance on the Big Top Stage in 2023.
Geese’s profile has skyrocketed since the release of their third album, Getting Killed, last summer, establishing the group as one of the hottest new rock bands in recent years. Geese won the BRIT Award for International Group of the Year at the 2026 ceremony, earning them a spot on the main stage at August’s Reading & Leeds Festival.
End of the Road is preparing for its 20th anniversary celebration at Larmer Tree Gardens from September 3rd to 6th. First held in 2006, the event is one of the UK’s leading independent festivals and traditionally ends the summer. Headlines for the 2025 edition were Father John Misty, Sharon Van Etten and Attachment Theory, Caribou, and Self-Esteem.
Meanwhile, Pulp’s headline booking marks their only UK festival appearance in 2026. Last year, the Sheffield band’s first album in more than 20 years, More, reached number one on the UK Official Albums Chart and was nominated for a Mercury Prize. The group will perform the record in full at London’s Southbank Center on July 18th.
In X’s post announcing his appearance on EOTR, Pulp teased, “This isn’t your typical Pulp show. It’s going to be…unusual. Expect the unexpected. In a good way.”
Tickets for End of the Road 2026 are sold out. Organizers are encouraging fans to use Twickets as a resale option ahead of the festival.
