fLaura Jane Grace has announced a tour of UK and Ireland grassroots venues for 2026 – find all the details below.
The former Against Me! singer will be hitting the road for a total of 11 dates next March and April, kicking off at Norwich’s Waterfront on March 30 and taking in dates in Southampton, Bristol, Milton Keynes, London, Nottingham, Manchester, Glasgow, Newcastle and Belfast, before finally wrapping at Dublin’s The Grand Social on April 10.
She has said she has chosen the venues as they represent the DIY punk ethos that she has sought to represent throughout her career.
Tickets for the shows go on sale at 10am on Friday (December 12), and you will be able to purchase yours from then here.
Grace has said: “It’s always a privilege and a pleasure coming back to the UK & Ireland, and I consider it an honour to be launching this tour with a heavy focus on supporting grassroots and independent venues.”
“Without these spaces, there is no scene, and without a scene, what’s the point?,” she added. “The band and I will be playing a mix of everything and anything from my song catalogue. So let us know what you want to hear!”

In July, Grace cancelled the remainder of her 2025 dates following allegations of spousal abuse made by her wife.
Patis Campbell Grace had posted on social media, asking the singer to leave their shared home, stating that she felt “unsafe”. She accused her partner of recurrently “using her massive platform to attempt to hurt me”.
Grace later responded to the accusations by apologising for her “poor decisions” but suggesting that the issue came from both sides of the marriage.
“It was reckless of me to get married so quickly and I made a lot of poor decisions where I absolutely should have known better,” she said. “My poor decisions have impacted my kid, my band and my community. I hold myself accountable for it and sincerely apologise.”
Grace released her second solo album ‘Hole In My Head’ last year, and she told NME at the time about how it was influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I came out of that experience, a little bewildered without my band and made the choice to start going to St Louis, just needing some kind of change from Chicago,” she said. “I didn’t know anyone in St Louis, and St Louis is kind of an intimidating place. So I was just really out of my comfort zone, which in a lot of ways is really healthy for you as a writer. It pushes you to work hard because you’re writing for your life.”
