The highly anticipated eternal sunshine tour has finally been confirmed by pop superstar Ariana Grande on August 28, 2025. This marks the singer’s return to touring after a seven-year break since her last major concert series.
Tour Details and Cities Revealed
Grande’s announcement sent shockwaves through social media as fans had been eagerly waiting for tour news since the release of her seventh studio album “Eternal Sunshine” in 2024. The tour will kick off on June 6, 2026, at Oakland Arena in California.
The eternal sunshine tour will span across North America and conclude with five special shows in London at the O2 Arena, ending on August 23, 2026. Cities confirmed for the tour include Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, Montreal, and Austin, where Grande will perform at the Moody Center on June 24 and 26.
Live Nation Production and Arena Format
Produced by Live Nation, this arena tour represents a significant return for the Grammy-winning artist. The tour will focus on bringing songs from her latest album to life, featuring hits like “We Can’t Be Friends” and “Yes, And.”
Grande’s last major tour was the “Sweetener World Tour” in 2019, making this comeback particularly meaningful for fans who have waited patiently through her acting career in “Wicked.”
Ticket Information and Fan Response
The announcement came after a teaser video posted on Grande’s Instagram, which simply stated “see you next year” and “announcement loading.” This strategic buildup created massive anticipation among her fanbase.
Pre-sale information and official ticket prices have not yet been released, but fans can expect updates through official channels in the coming weeks. The limited number of cities suggests these shows will be in high demand.
Album Support and Stage Production
The tour will primarily support her “Eternal Sunshine” album, which was released in March 2024. The album marked her return to music after focusing on her role as Glinda in the upcoming “Wicked” movie adaptation.
Fans can expect a visually stunning production that matches the dreamy, ethereal themes of the album. Grande has previously been known for elaborate stage designs and impressive vocal performances during her live shows.
A Long-Awaited Return
Speaking to media in 2024, Grande expressed her desire to return to the stage, saying she missed performing and connecting with fans. This tour announcement fulfills those promises and gives fans the opportunity to hear new material alongside her classic hits.
The seven-year gap between tours makes this announcement particularly significant in the pop music landscape. Many artists tour regularly, but Grande’s selective approach has only increased anticipation for her live performances.
Looking Forward
With the eternal sunshine tour set to begin in less than a year, fans are already making plans to secure tickets for what promises to be one of 2026’s most sought-after concert experiences.
The tour represents not just a return to music for Grande, but a celebration of her artistic growth and evolution as a performer.
