Ariana Grande’s “Last Hurrah” will be her 2026 tour

Ariana Grande may not be touring for a “long, long time,” so her 2026 tour will be her “last hurrah.”

Despite concentrating more on acting in recent years, the 32-year-old singer is scheduled to return to the stage next year for her The Eternal Sunshine Tour, which will tour North America and feature a London residency. She has, however, stated that the tour will be her final one for some time.

“I think the last 10 to 15 years will look very different to the ones that are coming up,” Ariana said when she spoke on the Good Hang with Amy Poehler podcast.

“I don’t want to make any firm statements. Although I’m thrilled to be doing this brief tour, I don’t think it will happen again for a very long time.

“I think the reason I’m doing it is because I’m like, ‘One last hurrah.'” For now, I’m grateful that [the tour] is going to be wonderful.

Ariana continued, “I spent so much time only doing pop music – but I grew up as a girl who loved musical theatre and comedy,” in response to the host’s question regarding her future professional goals. 

Therefore, I believe that pursuing things that seem very good at the moment will be the best thing for my soul, my creativity, and what I’m offering myself.

“It must be something different, even if it is ordinary. I’m working on a movie right now because I read the script and I think it’s hilarious, I adore the cast, and I’m really excited.

“Next year, I’m doing a little run of shows because I thought that sounded really fantastic.

“It seems like a really good idea to follow those genuine impulses.”

Ariana recently stated that she hopes her next tour would be different from her past travel experiences. 

In March 2024, Ariana stated in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1: “[I’m] excited to redefine my relationship to touring.”

“I will, of course, try my best to do it if there is an opportunity between the Wickeds [movies] or immediately after the Wickeds.”
