Robert Plant & Saving Grace have announced the Root & Branch tour for June 2027, taking the group to five outdoor concert settings in Britain and Ireland. The run opens at Hampton Court Palace Festival on June 19 and closes at Trinity College Dublin’s Summer Series on June 29.

General ticket sales begin on Friday, November 6. The Dublin promoter lists a 10am opening, with a presale on Thursday, November 5 at the same hour. Other advertised presale opportunities fall on November 4 and 5. Those early windows are separate from Friday’s general sale, so check the particular show and access route before setting a reminder.

  • June 19 — Hampton Court Palace Festival, London.
  • June 24 — Lincoln Castle, Lincoln.
  • June 26 — The Piece Hall, Halifax.
  • June 27 — Open Air Theatre, Scarborough.
  • June 29 — Trinity College Summer Series, Dublin.

For someone booking Dublin from Turkey, 10am Irish time on November 6 is 1pm in Turkey. The two countries will be three hours apart that week. A ticket-sale reminder based on summer time would be an hour out. Dublin’s advertised door time is 7pm on the June concert date; that is an entry time, not confirmation of when Plant’s set will start.

Lincoln has also named Kate Rusby and Seth Lakeman as special guests. That makes its bill more specific than the general five-date announcement. Their names should not be carried across to every other stop without an announcement for those shows. If a particular guest is part of the reason for travelling, the individual venue listing matters.

The dates follow the digital arrival of Robert Plant’s Saving Grace: All That Glitters… on October 9. This is a four-track EP that was previously issued on vinyl for Record Store Day, rather than an entirely new album first appearing with the tour announcement. The group’s Saving Grace album came out in 2025.

The EP brings together the traditional songs “The Blackest Crow” and “Two Coats”, Gillian Welch’s “Orphan Girl” and Bert Jansch’s “Poison”. That range is a useful introduction to the project’s interest in inherited songs and more recent writing. It offers something to hear before the concerts, without establishing what their setlists will contain.

Alongside Plant, the group includes vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, and cellist Barney Morse-Brown. The credits help explain why Saving Grace is a distinct ensemble to follow, rather than simply another label for a Plant solo appearance.

There are five nights across eleven calendar days, with Halifax and Scarborough the only consecutive pair. That spacing leaves room between most stops, but the final move is from Britain to Ireland. For now, choosing a venue, checking its own bill and following the correct sale window are more useful than assuming every date offers an identical evening.
