The Grammy winner makes her long-awaited return to the London stage.

London knows how to stage a moment, and Ariana Grande is about to deliver one. The global superstar will close out The Eternal Sunshine Tour with five shows at The O2 on 15, 16, 19, 20 and 23 August 2026, for a run that promises big vocals, tight choreography and precision pop production.

The dates mark Ariana's first full live tour since her Sweetener World Tour in 2019, turning a seven-year wait into a supersized homecoming. Expect a setlist that tracks her evolution from early breakout hits to the sleek, confessional pop of Eternal Sunshine. Fan favourites such as "7 Rings" and "Break Free" are likely to sit alongside chart-topping singles including "Yes, and?" and "We Can't Be Friends," delivered with the crystalline vocals and effortless runs that have become her signature.

For context, Grande's journey began on Nickelodeon's Victorious, before her debut album, Yours Truly, set the tone for a powerhouse vocalist with R&B instincts. With multiple Billboard Hot 100 No. 1s, two Grammy Awards, and a stack of platinum records, she has become one of the defining pop voices of the last decade. Beyond music, 2024 saw her star turn as Glinda in Wicked, where she showcased her theatre-honed range.

These dates also carry emotional resonance. In 2017, her Dangerous Woman Tour was targeted by a suicide bomber in Manchester, a tragedy that shaped the artist herself. Grande responded with compassion and resolve, returning for a benefit concert two weeks later.

With The O2's cutting-edge staging and sound, these shows are designed for spectacle, featuring cinematic visuals, a live band, and arena-scale choreography that still leaves space for those intimate, pin-drop ballad moments. Ticket presale for Ariana Grande live in London begins 16 September (registration opens 7 September), and general sale is expected to start on 18 September. Demand will be intense, so plan ahead.
