At this stage, the official tracklist for Petal has not been unveiled. There have been no confirmed song titles, features or production credits released by Ariana or her team.
That hasn’t stopped fans from speculating, though. Social media has been flooded with rumored track names and potential collaborations, and none of these have been verified.
Is Ariana Grande Going on Tour?
Ariana has not announced a tour in support of Petal, and there is no confirmed schedule for live performances tied to her new album at the time of publication.
Grande’s last major tour, the Sweetener World Tour, was a massive global success, but she has since taken a step back from extensive touring, focusing more on recording and acting projects.
This year, Ariana is starring in the next Meet the Parents installment, Focker-in-Law, starring the original cast, Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Teri Polo, Blythe Danner and Owen Wilson. Ariana plays Olivia Jones, Greg Focker’s son’s new fiancée, who just happens to be a former FBI investigator. Greg and Olivia, played by Ben and Ari, respectively, go head-to-head in the film as his overprotective nature for his son takes over. The movie will be released on November 25, 2026.
Last year, Ariana starred in the second Wicked film as Glinda.
