Ariana Grande announces first tour in SEVEN years following Dalton Gomez divorce and Wicked success

by

Ariana Grande is officially heading back on the road.

On Thursday, the popular pop star who is now 32 years old announced that she plans to begin her first tour in seven years, marking an end to her extended break from live concerts.

After playfully hinting at it through mysterious posts on social media, Ariana Grande officially announced her upcoming tour just a day later.

She wrote on Instagram, “I’ll catch up with everyone again next year ❤,” indicating the date when pre-sale tickets become available to her followers.

Kicking off, the Eternal Sunshine tour begins by scheduling nine significant concerts across North America. Following this, it’s on to London for a remarkable five-night stay.

Additional stops are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

Ariana Grande resumes touring for the first time following her separation with real estate agent Dalton Gomez, which occurred in 2023. This return is made shortly after an impressive year in movies for her.

In a notable role, the vocalist portrayed Glinda in the movie version of the acclaimed Broadway show “Wicked,” thus significantly boosting her fame within the film industry.

The announcement also represents a change in tune for Grande. 

Late last year, she told Variety that a tour wasn’t on the horizon, given her focus on acting

At that point, she expressed her deep appreciation for her acting career, acknowledging that her fans understand her enduring passion for music and performing live. However, she made it clear that such an endeavor wasn’t on the immediate horizon.

In the coming years, I hope we can delve into various artistic expressions, and currently, acting seems particularly appealing to me. I am deeply appreciative of your understanding and patience throughout our shared adventure with Wicked. The music, however, remains an integral aspect of my life.

Over the last several years, the Grammy-winning actress has primarily focused on her acting, but she’s recently eased concerns among fans by confirming that she hasn’t given up on music altogether.

In July, I took to Instagram to clarify misconceptions: “It’s quite absurd for everyone to think that due to my current busy schedule, I might be stepping away from singing and music…!!!

1. This essential piece has accompanied me throughout my journey, and it will continue to do so moving forward. Some space must be created for its expansive nature.

2. It’s something that’s been a vital part of me since the beginning, and I can’t imagine it any other way. There’s room needed for everything associated with it.

3. This has always served as my lifeline, and now more so than ever, I need to ensure there is ample space for all its aspects.

4. Over the years, this has become an integral part of me, and I can’t picture myself without it. There’s a need to create some room for everything that comes with it.

2. It may not appear exactly as I envision it in my mind, but I find immense joy in its current form. I am filled with gratitude, exhilaration, and inspiration.

3. This doesn’t quite match the image I have in my head, yet I still find delight in what I see. I feel an overwhelming sense of appreciation, excitement, and motivation.

4. It may not exactly resemble the picture I have in my mind, but I cherish its current state. I am filled with a mix of gratitude, excitement, and inspiration.

Ariana suggested that there might be a tour coming up as she mentioned planning to perform for her fans the following year while also working on finding a good balance.

She expressed that she’s striving to strike a harmony among numerous projects and pursuits she cherishes, while maintaining her unique approach. As a result, she’s designing a strategy to serenade you all the following year. Despite it being a small affair.

Her upcoming endeavors involve launching “Wicked: For Good,” scheduled for release in theaters on November 21, 2025, and working on the movie adaptation of “Dr. Seuss’ Oh, The Places You’ll Go!”.
