There are two BST Hyde Park dates left on Friday 30 June and Saturday 1 July, so I suspect that will be one of the dates. I hope not, as I dont fancy paying £200 to be anywhere near the stage. But I know I will (sigh).
All Points East and Lytham Festival are what the festival-heads are predicting. Covers both North and South large-scale events. I'm not sure they would draw enough of a crowd for their own outdoor show (ie not tagged onto BST Hyde Park).
Hopefully a few Leadmill warm-ups (tickets via a lottery?), some Hardcore album shows at the Barbican (a nod to their Halloween appearance there 25 years ago when TIH was debuted), then NY and Mexico/South America for the Latam massive. Pension fund promptly topped-up and we never see them again. Let's make the most of it!

Thats their pension fund, mine could be gone! Might have to go back to work. 27 days so far
Hardcore at Barbican sounds great, and I have some credits after my wheeling and dealing with The Divine Comedy series chopping and changing seats. Royal Albert Hall would be good for me as well with a £90 credit I need to use in next 60 days or so.
All Points East would be nice (and a long walk home). I enjoyed Jarv Is and Interpol last time around, I did feel the main stage with The Strokes was not that good. But then again Field Day a couple of years earlier was. Bit hit and miss.
A word from Jarvis Cocker: Three months ago, we
asked, 'What exactly do you do for an encore?' Well
an encore happens when the crowd makes enough
noise to bring the band back to the stage. So we are
playing in the UK and Ireland in 2023. Therefore
come along & make some noise. See you there.
Let's all meet up at...

9 June Dublin St Annes Park
1 July London Finsbury Park
7 July Glasgow TRNSMT Festival
9 July Scarborough Open Air Theatre

14 July Sheffield Utilita Arena
15 July Sheffield Utilita Arena
21 July Suffolk Latitude Festival
Tickets will go on sale on Friday, 4 November at 9am
(GMT), and will be available from: https://sjm.lnk.

Must admit I was hoping for a little surprise/twist with the announcement (Hardcore album shows/ a Best Of album with a new song or two etc.) but I live a 20 minute walk away from Finsbury Park so cant really complain! And with two Sheffield arena dates, will probably not have to scramble too much for tickets there.
I hope some of the French and North/South American fans get a visit from Pulp too. Jarvis says on his Insta that these are the dates "so far" so there is still hope. Glastonbury will be almost certainly added too.

I'm honestly tempted to come to the UK for this. It's been on my list of holiday destinations for years now. Really hoping they'll announce some Australian shows, as much of a long shot as it is.

No doubts they will tour Europe. France especially. I for one probably wont go to their big gigs. I cant enjoy those anymore, so hoping for indoors with smaller venues. I dont mind travelling for Pulp :D
Was hoping for new material too, but obviously we never getting that right. That doesnt make any money
