On Saturday night (June 6) in Oakland, Calif., nearly 20,000 fans learned that good things really do come to those who wait.
The evening kicked off Ariana Grande’s long-awaited, highly-anticipated return to touring after a seven year hiatus. Grande last traveled the globe in 2019 on her Sweetener World Tour that spanned 100 shows. The trek was the biggest of her career at the time, with a gross of $146 million and 1.3 million tickets sold according to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore.
