Ariana Grande Addresses Ticket Resellers: ‘It’s Not Right’

Ariana Grande has released a statement to fans regarding concert ticket resellers after the North American dates of her 2026 Eternal Sunshine Tour went on sale, and quickly sold out, earlier this week on Ticketmaster. Though face value tickets are not currently available, ticket inventory can be found at inflated prices on the resale market– on Ticketmaster and on platforms including StubHub, TickPick, SeatGeek and more.

The singer posted an Instagram Story addressing the situation on Saturday (Sept. 13).

“hi my angels, i have been on set all week but i wanted to let you know that what’s been happening with the secondary ticket resellers has been brought to my attention and of course i am incredibly bothered by it,” Grande wrote in her message.

She continued, “i’ve been on the phone every second of my free time fighting for a solution. i hear you and hopefully, we will be able to get more of these tickets into your hands instead of theirs. it’s not right.”

“i just wanted you to know that my team and i see it and that i care very much and we will do, and are doing, everything we can. i love you so much and thank you for your patience and understanding,” Grande said.

The Eternal Sunshine Tour, with 36 dates scheduled for summer 2026 in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, begins on June 6, 2026 in Oakland, Calif. It runs through Aug. 6, wrapping in London, England. Grande, touring in support of her seventh studio album — the Billboard 200 chart topper Eternal Sunshine — announced initial dates in late August and added to the itinerary in September.
