Obscure Pet Shop Boys

40 years after the release of their 1986 debut album “Please”, Pet Shop Boys will perform five intimate live shows in April 2026 at London’s Electric Ballroom.

Entitled “Obscure Pet Shop Boys”, and in contrast to the duo’s “Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live” tour, the new shows will see PSB perform a setlist featuring only non-single album tracks and B‑sides from across their acclaimed career, with many songs being performed live for the first time. The April 8^th show will be a benefit concert in aid of the charity War Child.

Update: All “Obscure” shows are now sold out.
