Paloma Faith has announced she will be returning to play a total of seven Forest Live shows in June and July 2015 as part of the Forestry Commission’s outdoor concert series, having performed to sell-out crowds in 2013.

Income generated from ticket sales is spent on protecting, improving and expanding England’s forests and woodlands and increasing their value to people and wildlife. Over Forest Live’s 14 year history, money raised has contributed to a wide range of projects, from wildlife conservation to making improvements for visitors.

Commenting on the forest shows, Paloma Faith said, “I am so excited to do the forest tour. I did it before and had such a wonderful time. We are very lucky in Britain to have such a beautiful and diverse landscape and I am excited to play for you there again. See you all in the summer. ”
