Ariana Grande‘s upcoming Eternal Sunshine tour will mark her first extended run of concert dates since 2019. And in a new interview on Amy Poehler‘s Good Hang podcast, she says she has no plans for another tour in the foreseeable future.
“The last 10 or 15 years will look very different to the ones that are coming up,” she said. “I don’t want to say anything definitive. I do know that I’m very excited to do this small tour, but I think it might not happen again for a long, long, long, long, long time. I’m going to give it my all and it’s going to be beautiful. I think that’s why I’m doing it because I’m like, ‘One last hurrah!’”
The last hurrah kicks off June 6, 2026, in Oakland, California. It wraps up Sept. 1 at London’s 02 Arena, where she’s playing 10 shows.
A couple of months after the tour wraps, the long awaited fourth movie in the Meet the Parents franchise — Focker In-Law — will hit theaters. Grande stars in the film alongside returning cast members Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Blythe Danner, and Teri Polo.
The shoot wrapped earlier this month. The exact plot details have been kept guarded, but it is known that Grande plays the future daughter-in-law of Stiller and Polo. In an echo of the first movie, they don’t approve of her. “Ben Stiller is now the same age that Bob was when we did the first one,” Focker In-Law producer Jane Rosenthal told Variety in May, “and his kids have grown up, and they have to come home and meet the parents. I can’t disclose anything else about the plot.”
In her conversation with Poehler, Grande revealed a little more. “I don’t know if I’m allowed to say this,” she said. “But my character is a triathlete. I spent yesterday doing burpees and high knees with Robert De Niro. I’m like, ‘What is this movie? What are we doing?’ But I’m having a blast. It’s really special.”

The film also stars Skyler Gisondo, Eduardo Franco, and Beanie Feldstein. “I’m so inspired by my castmates,” Grande said. “Beanie Feldstein is incredible. I love her so much. She’s so funny, so wonderful.”
Elsewhere in the interview with Poehler, Grande spoke about her love of birding. “I have the Merlin app,” she said. “You record the sound of the bird and it quickly pops up what it is. You can tell by their tone of voice. I love that.”
