Ariana Grande has disappointed fans by confirming she has no plans to tour in 2025, despite recent speculation fuelled by apparent Ticketmaster listings. The singer's record label, Republic Records, issued a statement shutting down the rumours, saying: 'There are no plans for a tour next year, but Ariana remains deeply appreciative of her fans and all their continued love, support and excitement.'
The 31-year-old star, who recently earned her first Golden Globe nomination for her role as Glinda in the film adaptation of Wicked, had been rumoured to be embarking on a concert tour to support her seventh studio album Eternal Sunshine, released in March. However, the label's statement has put those hopes on hold.
Grande has previously hinted at a possible mini-tour between the two Wicked films, with the second part due in November 2025. In a July interview on the Shut Up Evan podcast, she said: 'I think it would be a really lovely idea to be able to trickle in some show in between the two Wicked films. I think there's a version of that that exists.' She described it as a 'mini sampling of shows' rather than a full world tour.
Her last major tour was the Sweetener World Tour, which ran from March to December 2019. Since then, Grande has focused on her acting career, with Wicked reigniting her passion for performance. The film has grossed $372 million worldwide since its November 22 release, and Grande has also received a Critics Choice nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
While no dates have been confirmed, fans may see Grande return to the stage in 2026, as she balances her music and acting commitments. The singer has said she is 'always going to do pop stuff,' but for now, her priority remains her film work.
