Ariana Grande is bringing “The Eternal Sunshine Tour” to Chicago for a three-night run at United Center in August 2026, and it doubles as the final North American stop on the entire outing.
The United Center stand caps the 41-show tour, Grande’s first major headline run since the “Sweetener World Tour” wrapped in 2019, before she heads overseas to run it back in London. It also lands just days after she releases her eighth studio album, petal, on July 31st. Here’s what you need to know to get in.

The Chicago Show Details
Grande plays United Center in Chicago, Illinois, on Monday, August 3rd, Wednesday, August 5th, and Thursday, August 6th, 2026. Doors and start times can shift from night to night, so confirm your date before you head out.
United Center is at 1901 West Madison Street on Chicago’s Near West Side. On event nights, the CTA runs the #19 United Center Express bus from downtown, and the nearest ‘L’ stop is Ashland on the Green and Pink Lines, about a 15 to 20 minute walk away. There’s plenty of on-site parking if you’re driving, and rideshare drop-off is close by, but transit is the easier move for a show this size.
Where Can You Get Tickets?
StubHub is one of your best bets for the United Center shows, with listings across all three nights. Every purchase is covered by the FanProtect guarantee, so if something goes wrong with your tickets, you’ll be reseated or refunded at 120% of what you paid. StubHub is a secondary market platform, so prices may be above or below face value depending on demand.
You can also check Ticketmaster’s Verified Resale platform and SeatGeek, where promo code SEATGEEK10 takes $10 off your first order of over $150.
For face-value tickets from other fans, r/arianagrande sometimes has people selling or trading closer to show dates. Just deal only with accounts that have a real community history, and avoid sending money via Venmo, Cash App, or Zelle.

One Last North American Shot
These three nights are the final North American dates on “The Eternal Sunshine Tour”. After Chicago, Grande heads overseas for a run at London’s O2 Arena to close out the tour, so this is the last chance to catch her stateside on this outing.
In town for Lollapalooza but didn’t grab a four-day pass, or only going for one day? Grande’s United Center run kicks off August 3rd, right as the festival wraps in Grant Park, making it an easy way to keep the weekend going. Check out our full tour ticket guide for more.
Strategic Tips for Buying
1. Compare all three nights before you commit. The cheapest night depends on where you want to sit.
2. Set up a price alert on StubHub for the night and section you want, and it’ll notify you when prices drop below a number you set.
3. When you find something in your budget, move on it. Good seats at good prices move fast on a run like this.
4. Stick to platforms with real buyer protection. StubHub‘s FanProtect and Ticketmaster Verified Resale both verify what you’re buying.
About the Tour
The Chicago run is part of “The Eternal Sunshine Tour,” Grande’s first headline outing since the “Sweetener World Tour” wrapped in 2019. The 41-show, residency-style tour celebrates 2024’s eternal sunshine alongside her forthcoming eighth album, petal, due July 31st on Republic Records. Rather than the traditional single-night arena stop, she’s doing multiple nights in each city, with extended stays in Los Angeles, New York, and London. The United Center stand is the final North American date before the tour heads to the UK. For the full tour schedule and ticketing details, check out our complete ticket guide.
