Ariana Grande's Sizzling Comeback After 7-Year Hiatus: Eternal Sunshine Tour

Ariana Grande made a stunning comeback after a 7-year hiatus with her Eternal Sunshine Tour in Oakland, California, on June 6, 2026.

According to TMZ, this marks Ariana's first major concert tour since 2019. Fans were ecstatic to see the 32-year-old pop sensation take the stage, performing hits like 'The Boy is Mine,' 'Supernatural,' and 'Hate That I Made You Love Me' from her album Eternal Sunshine.

The setlist also featured changes in costume, including a daring dominatrix cat costume that stole the show. This concert marked a significant moment for Ariana, who has been focusing on acting in recent years, with praises for her role as Glinda in the film Wicked.

Fans were more than thrilled to welcome Ariana back, and social media is abuzz with videos from the tour. Reviewers praised Ariana's vocal range, visually stunning stage setting, and emotional setlist. The grand finale of the concert, featuring an illusion that made it seem like Ariana was floating towards the sky, was a hit among fans.

Marking the beginning of the Eternal Sunshine Tour, the event is set to take place across the United States and international locations over the coming months.

The Oakland leg of the tour drew nearly 20,000 fans, according to Billboard. Ariana's previous Sweetener World Tour in 2019 was her biggest concert tour yet, with $146 million in earnings and 1.3 million tickets sold.

Since then, Ariana has released two albums and is set to release Petal on July 31, 2026, amidst her ongoing tour. It's no surprise that the excitement for Eternal Sunshine Tour was at an all-time high when Ariana announced it in August last year, with fans flooding for tickets.

This time around, the tour is more intimate, with only 41 performances in select cities compared to the Sweetener World Tour.

Since 2019, Ariana has released the albums Positions (2020) and Eternal Sunshine (2024), both of which were nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the Grammy Awards.
