Dangerous Woman Tour

The Honeymoon Tour was Ariana Grande's second concert tour and debut arena tour in support of her second studio album My Everything, which was released on August 25, 2014. The tour began on February 28, 2015 in Independence, Missouri, and ended on October 25, 2015 in São Paulo, Brazil.

Background

On June 4, 2014, Grande signed a contract for her tour and announced that the tour wouldn't just be the United States. She later revealed that the tour would start in February 2015. Further on, it was announced that she would be visiting Brazil on the tour during an MTV Twitter takeover. On September 5, 2014, Grande announced the first set of tour dates through a new fan app called Fahlo. She revealed the first 26 dates and cities. European dates were announced on October 4, 2014.

Trivia

• About seven weeks before the tour started, Grande created a YouTube channel called Honeymoon Diaries, where she would be posting videos related to the tour and rehearsals.
• VIP fans who purchased Meet & Greet tickets got an Ariana Grande bag with bracelet and light up cat ears.
• The Meet & Greet was set up like a photo booth so fans got to go in (2 at a time) and take 3 pictures with Grande that were printed out.
• Grande's dogs Toulouse and Sirius went with Grande on tour but the rest of her dogs did not as they don't like traveling.
• During "Best Mistake" Grande stands on a fake cloud that gets lifted up over the stage.
• She was almost crushed by a lift while performing "Love Me Harder" on the opening night.
• Big Sean joined Grande on tour on March 7, 2015 in Detroit. He rapped his verses in "Best Mistake" and "Right There" and they kissed on stage.
• Justin Bieber joined Grande on stage on March 28, 2015 in Miami and they performed "Love Me Harder" and his songs "All That Matters" and "As Long As You Love Me". He also came back on April 8, 2015 in Inglewood, California.
• Grande got a "honeymoon" tattoo written out in cursive on the side of her right middle finger.

Set list

Grande said that they tried to fit as many songs from My Everything and Yours Truly as they could but they couldn't play every song. Ariana and her crew also confirmed that they put an "old song" that was a "fan favourite" in the setlist ("Pink Champagne"). She also used Mi.Mu Gloves during one of her songs.
