Multiplatinum singer-songwriter Ariana Grande reveals the first set of dates for The Sweetener World Tour, in support of her most recent album, Sweetener. The first leg of the tour kicks off in North America on March 18 in Albany, N.Y., and concludes back in New York, N.Y., on June 18.
Exclusive presale tickets will be available for purchase for American Express Card Members
starting Nov. 1 through Nov. 3.
International tour dates will be announced soon.
Ariana is a touring powerhouse, having made it to No. 19 on the 2017 Top 100 Worldwide Tours chart with her last “Dangerous Woman” tour. That year she grossed $66.5 million on 879,164 tickets.
Despite immense talent and booming business, Grande has faced multiple very public heartbreaks in the past year. It was outside her concert in Manchester, England, that a terrorist attack killed 22 in June 2017. She responded to that tragedy with the One Love Manchester concert, organized with the help of manager Scooter Braun.
More recently, her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller died of an apparent drug overdose.
This North American leg of the Sweetener tour will last three months in total. The dates are listed below.
