What is the difference between 'sabrás' and 'conocerás'?

'Sabrás' (from saber) means you will know a fact, a piece of information, or a skill (e.g., 'you will know the answer'). 'Conocerás' (from conocer) means you will be familiar with a person, a place, or an entity (e.g., 'you will meet the new boss' or 'you will visit the city').

Is 'sabrás' used for making future plans?

Not usually for plans. 'Sabrás' is strictly about future knowledge or discovery. For plans, you would typically use the simple present or 'ir a' + infinitive (e.g., 'vas a ir').
