The Sweetener Sessions (officially American Express x Ariana Grande: The Sweetener Sessions in the United States, and Capital Up Close Presents Ariana Grande in the United Kingdom) was a brief four-show promotional tour by American singer Ariana Grande, in support of her fourth studio album Sweetener (2018). Carried out over the 18 days following the release of the album, it began on August 20, 2018, in New York City, United States and ended on September 4, in London, England. It was followed by her 100-show Sweetener World Tour in 2019.

Background

Three performances took place at New York City's Irving Plaza, The Vic Theatre in Chicago, and Los Angeles' Ace Theater between August 20 and 25, 2018, following the release of her studio album Sweetener.[citation needed]

Tickets for the intimate shows were made available exclusively to American Express cardholders.[1]

The New York City concert occurred after her appearance at the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards, where she performed "God Is a Woman".[2]

On August 28, 2018, a London concert was announced in partnership with Capital Up Close. Tickets to the show were not available for purchase, instead Capital listeners could win tickets in competition rounds.[3][4]
