Two-time Grammy Award-winning jazz and soul vocalist Gregory Porter has announced a return to the UK in June and July 2027. The upcoming six-date live run culminates in a three-night residency at London’s historic Royal Albert Hall.
The tour kicks off on Thursday, June 24 at the Swansea Building Society Arena, before heading north to Manchester’s O2 Apollo on June 26 and Glasgow’s SEC Armadillo on June 27. Porter will then perform three headline shows at the iconic Royal Albert Hall on June 30, July 1, and July 4.
Having last performed in the UK in 2025, Porter’s upcoming dates will draw from a celebrated discography spanning jazz, soul, and gospel. Known for his warm baritone voice and captivating live presence, the American singer-songwriter has achieved global acclaim, selling over one million albums worldwide alongside securing two Grammy Awards.
The tour announcement follows the 10th anniversary of his critically acclaimed album Take Me to the Alley, which was celebrated earlier this year in May 2026 with a special limited-edition 2LP vinyl reissue. Porter was also recently honored with the 2025 Edison Jazz Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his enduring contributions to contemporary jazz.
Beyond his touring and album releases, his songwriting was recently featured on screen with the track "Good Goodbye" for the Netflix film Goodbye June, directed by Kate Winslet.
Tickets for all six UK dates are on sale now via venue box offices and official ticket outlets.
