Ariana Grande Ends ‘Eternal Sunshine’ Tour in London Before Planned Hiatus

Ariana Grande ended her “Eternal Sunshine” Tour in London, closing a 41-date run before taking a planned break from public-facing work.

“

This has been such an extraordinary experience. Thank you for ten beautiful London shows and for forty-one incredible tour shows.

The 33-year-old singer performed the final show at the O2 Arena on September 1 and became emotional as she thanked fans for their support. She said the tour had been an extraordinary experience and thanked the audience for ten London shows and all 41 performances.

“I have the best fans in the entire world,” Grande told the crowd. “I have loved every minute of this with you all, and I just want to make sure I express how grateful I am.” She ended by reflecting on the journey she and her fans had shared, from “Honeymoon Avenue” to Hampstead.

Grande had also performed while recovering from a deep cut on her foot. Before the final London shows, she said on Instagram Stories that the injury had forced her to replace her usual platform heels with more comfortable footwear. She reassured fans that she was recovering and continued with both performances.

Taking a step back from visibility.

Her final show marked the start of a break she confirmed in August. Her representative said Grande would be “taking a step back from visibility” and wanted to finish the tour “healthily and happily” before pausing public appearances. Grande later told a Chicago concert audience that the decision was not a reaction to online criticism. “The announcement that was made yesterday was not a reactive or impulsive thing,” she said, describing it as a decision she had “quietly made a long time ago.”
