Robert Plant and Saving Grace have added five English and Irish dates to their summer 2027 schedule. The Root & Branch run begins at Hampton Court Palace Festival on 19 June and ends at Dublin’s Trinity College Summer Series on 29 June.
The new shows continue Plant’s collaboration with vocalist Suzi Dian and the ensemble behind Saving Grace. General ticket sales begin on Friday 6 November at 10am, with presales varying by event.

Five June shows, with Halifax guests confirmed
The current itinerary published by Nonesuch lists Hampton Court Palace on 19 June, Lincoln Castle on 24 June, Scarborough Open Air Theatre on 26 June, The Piece Hall in Halifax on 27 June and Trinity College in Dublin on 29 June.
Halifax’s official event page separately confirms Sunday 27 June and names Kate Rusby and Seth Lakeman as special guests. The courtyard show has doors at 6pm and is scheduled to finish at approximately 10.30pm. The venue also says it will be BSL interpreted.
For that event, Club 1779 presale access opens at 10am on Tuesday 3 November, ahead of Friday’s general sale. Fans should check their chosen event’s listing rather than assume that every stop uses the same presale.
A live return following All That Glitters
The dates follow the October digital release of Saving Grace: All That Glitters… through Nonesuch. The four-track EP draws on traditional material alongside songs by Gillian Welch and Bert Jansch, extending the folk and Americana repertoire explored by the group.
Plant and Dian are joined in Saving Grace by drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley and cellist Barney Morse-Brown. Their self-titled album arrived in September 2025, bringing the ensemble’s work together on record.
The June bookings place that music in a series of outdoor settings, from palace and castle grounds to Halifax’s courtyard and Dublin’s university campus. The ticket provider’s current listings are available for the individual shows; Nonesuch also lists further European appearances in July.
