Pulp closed the mainstage on Saturday night at the End of the Road Festival's 20th anniversary celebration, a four-day event near Blandford Forum, Dorset, that drew a sell-out crowd of 15,000.
The festival, set on Cranborne Chase, showcased more than 140 acts across five music stages featuring indie-rock, folk and alternative music. The weekend also included comedy performances in the Talking Heads arena.
Pulp's set included classics such as Common People, This Is Hardcore, and Underwear. Frontman Jarvis Cocker, who has previously performed at the festival and regularly attended, sang Happy Birthday to the event and toasted another 20 years before announcing he would take a break.
The End of the Road Festival is one of the final events of the UK summer season. It drew performers including Irish indie-pop singer Cmat, New York art-rockers Geese and Canadian singer-songwriter Mac DeMarco, as well as comedians Fern Brady and Adam Buxton.
