A brief look forward to the 2025 Fairport Convention Autumn Tour that follows a triumphant sold-out Cropredy.

Riding the wave of their triumphant return to the fields of a sold-out Cropredy Convention last weekend, legendary British Folk-Rockers – Fairport Convention – are now busy gearing up for their 2025 Autumn Tour – hitting the road on Wednesday 8th October. 

WHAT’S ON THE CARDS

Fresh off the back of two classic performances at Cropredy – both opening and closing the festival that has become one of several highlights of the year for their dedicated fanbase. The band that pioneered British Folk Rock will take in 23 dates across England, Scotland and Wales before rounding things off in suitable style at The Tung Auditorium in Liverpool on 2nd November. The lineup will comprise the Fabulous Fairport Four – no Dave Mattacks to power things along – so expect a possible tweak of arrangements and maybe a surprise or two in the more acoustic based set.

MEANWHILE…

Fans of both the band and their synonymous gathering in the Oxfordshire fields were treated to a Cropredy Convention to remember this year – featuring some memorable performances from established acts such as Albert Lee, Trevor Horn and Jethro Tull’s Martin Barre, whilst also being introduced to some of the UK’s finest emerging talent like The Henry Girls, Urban Folk Quartet and The Salts.

There were even a couple of illustrious surprise guest appearances – including Led Zeppelin’s Robert Plant joining Deborah Bonham for a couple of numbers in the blissful Saturday afternoon sunshine.  

Fairport Convention’s Autumn Tour runs from 8th October to 2nd November, with some shows already sold out. Tickets are available to purchase now on the links below.
