I was so excited when Ariana Grande announced her Sweetener World Tour. Then she released additional dates and cities, and I was even more excited to see that she would be performing in Jacksonville, Florida. Ariana is another one of my favorite artists who attended Jacksonville that I got to see in concert (the other being Rihanna), and I could not wait until December 1, to see this queen perform. The concert was at 8:00 pm, and the arena was packed, I was so excited, and I felt the Ariana Grande love around me.
Ariana performed a variety of her hits, and I was singing every one of them. (seriously you can hear me on the videos I recorded lol (which are not posted here).

Wheeww Ariana Grande’s voice is amazing; How can this big, soulful voice come out of a person so tiny… I mean she gave some great performances, and not only that, her set designs were beautiful — I mean they were dreamy, celestial, feminine, and soft with hues of pink, purple, yellow, and blue. I meant these set designs were perfect for her and her songs. Below are some pictures I took at the concert. (p.s. I know my pics aren’t the best, but I thought they were okay lol)

I had a great time at Ariana’s concert, and when she performed “thank u’ next”, I knew the concert was about to end, which I was sad about, because I was really enjoying myself. I feel like it was destiny that I got to see this queen perform, because I believe the Jacksonville, FL show was later added. I am so happy that Jacksonville was added to her tour, because this concert is one of the great things I experienced this year. Thank you Ariana Grande for an amazing and memorable night. ♡
☆ Concert Ready — My outfit for the Sweetener Tour ☆
Before I wrap up my post on my night at the concert, I wanted to show you what I wore that night…the lace top, pink corduroy skirt, and tights all came from Forever 21; The boots I already had (not pictured), which came from JCPenney’s. I wanted to do an Ariana Sweetener-era, feminine, soft look, which I think I nailed !
Thank U’ Next…lol..just kidding, thank you for reading about my fun night at this queen’s concert; Here’s to attending the next tour she goes on..Until next time !
