Radiohead Announces 2027 World Tour, Pulp Headlines End of the Road Festival

British rock band Radiohead has announced a 2027 world tour, including 16 shows across Australia and five in Japan. This marks the band's first Australian tour in 15 years, with dates scheduled for Perth, Melbourne, and Sydney. Meanwhile, Pulp is set to headline the 20th End of the Road Festival, drawing an estimated 15,000 attendees to its location near Blandford Forum.

These announcements come as the music industry sees a notable resurgence in physical media sales. In the first half of 2026, US sales of CDs and vinyl experienced significant growth, up 59% and 18% respectively. This trend suggests a growing consumer interest in tangible music formats, potentially influencing touring and festival strategies for established and emerging artists alike.
