Ariana Grande's Eternal Sunshine Tour has officially launched with a packed setlist of 24 songs each night, including a rotating surprise a cappella segment. Since the tour began, fans have been treated to deep cuts, fan favorites, and a unique surprise song that changes per show. The tour, which kicked off in Brooklyn, New York, on July 19, 2026, marks Grande's first live performances in seven years, showcasing hits from her albums positions, eternal sunshine, and collaborations with Lady Gaga and The Weeknd, as well as songs from the Wicked movies and her upcoming album petal.
Full Setlist Breakdown
Each night, Grande performs a consistent main setlist, with the surprise song as the only variation. The standard setlist includes: 'yes, and?', 'positions', 'dandelion', 'the boy is mine', 'eternal sunshine', 'just like magic', 'thank u, next', '7 rings', 'imperfect for you', 'warm', 'safety net', 'One Last Time', 'Rain On Me', 'Break Free', 'twilight zone', 'past life', 'Dangerous Woman', 'Honeymoon Avenue', a surprise a cappella song, 'Hampstead', 'Into You', 'hate that I made you love me', 'we can't be friends (wait for your love)', and 'supernatural'. After Grande leaves the stage, 'ordinary things' plays with credits and a dedication to her Nonna, who passed away on June 14, 2025.
Surprise A Cappella Songs
Since the Brooklyn show, Grande has incorporated a surprise a cappella segment. Originally placed between 'past life' and 'Dangerous Woman', it now occurs between 'Honeymoon Avenue' and 'Hampstead', often with audience suggestions. So far, the surprise songs have been: 'Be Alright' (Brooklyn, July 19), no surprise song (Boston, July 23), 'sweetener' (Boston, July 25), and '34+35' (Boston, July 26). The July 28 show is yet to be confirmed. According to reports, the setlist remains identical across all dates except for this section, and it is unclear if Grande will alter it for her UK leg or after the release of Petal on July 31.
Omissions and Wicked Songs
Grande notably omits several major hits from her setlist, including 'The Way', 'Problem', 'Bang Bang', 'Love Me Harder', 'Side to Side', 'break up with your girlfriend, I'm bored', and '34+35' (except as a surprise). No songs from her Sweetener album appear in the main setlist, such as 'no tears left to cry', 'God is a woman', and 'breathin''. Despite her role as Glinda in the Wicked films, Grande does not perform any Wicked songs during the show, though a brief interlude features a scene from The Wizard of Oz and Grande walking with a younger version of herself.
Tour Context and Changes
The Eternal Sunshine Tour marks Grande's first tour since 2019's Sweetener World Tour, with new music spanning multiple eras. The setlist deliberately highlights tracks from eternal sunshine and positions, while omitting many earlier hits. As the tour progresses, fans eagerly await potential additions, especially as Grande's forthcoming album Petal drops on July 31. For now, the surprise a cappella segment offers a unique twist each night, keeping the show fresh for dedicated Arianators.
