Ariana Grande Breaks the Internet with Surprise New Single Drop — Release Date, Lyrics & Fan Reactions

Ariana Grande is officially hitting the road again. The pop superstar has announced “The Eternal Sunshine Tour,” a 25-date run set for summer 2026 that will mark her first trek in six years and her debut outing behind 2024’s chart-topping album Eternal Sunshine. The Live Nation–produced schedule leans on multi-night mini-residencies instead of single stops, offering fans multiple chances to see Grande in major markets. Highlights include four shows in Los Angeles, four in Brooklyn, and a five-night finale at London’s O2 Arena.

Why the timing matters Grande’s touring comeback follows her headline-making night at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, where she took home Video of the Year for the uplifting “Brighter Days Ahead” visual. The win, coupled with the platinum success of Eternal Sunshine and its deluxe edition, has reignited global demand for live performances. What fans can expect • Setlists built around Eternal Sunshine favorites (“Yes, And?”, “We Can’t Be Friends”), past smash hits (“7 Rings,” “Thank U, Next”), and deep cuts rotated across multiple nights. • Residency-style runs designed to reduce travel strain for attendees and allow Grande to deliver elevated production in each city. • Social-media-ready VIP lounge experiences and limited-edition tour merch drops.
