American singer and actress Sabrina Carpenter has rapidly become a prominent figure in pop music. Having already achieved significant milestones like opening for Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour and performing at Coachella, Carpenter is poised to maintain her momentum as she extends her “Short N Sweet Tour” into 2025, spanning multiple countries.
Her milestone headlining tour follows the success of her chart-topping singles “Espresso” and “Please Please Please,” both set to feature on “Short n’ Sweet”.
Having spent years tirelessly honing her craft, Carpenter is now embracing her well-deserved Main Pop Girl moment. Reflecting on her journey, she told Rolling Stone in an interview, “I never had a plan B, and it wasn’t even a thought in my mind that it wouldn’t work out. I just always knew it was about not if it would happen but when it would happen.”
The “Coincidence” crooner has teamed up with PLUS1 for her tour to establish the Sabrina Carpenter Fund. This initiative aims to support the well-being of both people and animals by contributing to national and local organizations focused on mental health, animal welfare, and advocacy for the LGBTQ+ community.
Short n’ Sweet album
Carpenter released her sixth studio album, “Short n’ Sweet,” on August 23, 2024, debuting at number 1 during its first week of release. Her first three singles debuted in the top five of Billboard’s Hot 100 in the same week: “Espresso” marked her first number 1 song on the UK Singles Chart, “Please Please Please” became her first number 1 song on the US Billboard Hot 100, and “Taste” peaked at number 2 in the US and number 1 in the UK. This record was previously held by the Beatles’ “I Want To Hold Your Hand,” “She Loves You,’ and “Please Please Me.” Sabrina’s hit singles have launched the 25-year-old into a new echelon of pop stardom.
The “Gen Z Dolly Parton” delivers a vibrant pop record on her second album with Island Records. The singer explores her love life, expressing her desire to have a relationship that lasts longer than the rest. With seductive and sexual lyrics, she describes what she wants from her next lover and expresses her willingness to go all the way for him.
The album sold 362,000 units in the US, and the album had the third-best opening week of 2024, behind Taylor Swift and Queen Bey. The remaining songs from the 12-track album, like “Bed Chem,” “Good Graces,” “Juno,” and others, all made it to Billboard’s Hot 50 Chart. The album has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), making it the first of the 25-year-old albums to achieve this feat. The album earned her 8 Grammy nominations at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.
Short N Sweet Tour
In June 2024, Sabrina announced the first dates of her tour, which began with shows in North America. “Short N’ Sweet Tour” is the American singer’s first arena tour and her fifth concert tour in support of her sixth studio album of the same title.

The 33 concert dates for the North American leg commenced in Columbus, US, on September 23, 2024, and ended on November 18 in California.

Sabrina announced the European dates for her tour in December 2024. These dates will include shows in London, Paris, Stockholm, Manchester, Glasgow, Amsterdam, and Brussels, among others.

Items to bring
Here’s a list of items to bring to a Sabrina Carpenter concert:
- Tickets (mobile or physical)
- Valid ID (driver’s license or passport)
- Cash/credit cards for merchandise, food, or drinks
- Phone and charger. Make sure to have enough battery power to get you through the show and capture all the content you need. Portable chargers are a must if you’re to stay updated throughout the show.
- Earplugs for sound protection.
- Refillable water bottles will be allowed. Many artists have made sustainable touring plans and as such fans should support them by adhering to guidelines like this.
- A small backpack or crossbody bag, not more than A4 size, should be transparent.
- Bring a sweater or light jacket, as arenas can be chilly as the show goes on.
- Medications and emergency supplies like pain relievers, EPI pens, and band-aids will be permitted if there is proof of prescription from a medical doctor or institution.
What you should not bring
- To ensure a safe concert experience for all, including yourself, here are a few items fans should not bring to any of Sabrina’s concerts. This is a compilation of prohibited items from most of the venues Sabrina will be performing at, endeavouring to go to her concerts without these items.
- Weapons, bladed/sharp articles, ammunition, and explosives are strictly prohibited. There would be several security operatives at strategic locations around each venue; you are free and mandated to report any suspicious activity or behaviour to them. Therefore, there is no need to bring any weapon with the mindset of self-defence. Weapons of any kind will be confiscated, and your concert ticket is at risk of being seized.
- Horns, whistles, and drums are strictly prohibited. The loud sounds that will be emitting from Sabrina’s speakers are deafening enough. A thorough search will be conducted before entry.
- Flags, flagpoles, and large umbrellas can restrict the view of other fans in attendance. Do not bring any of these items with you.
- Professional camera equipment, GoPro cameras.
- Illegal drugs and alcoholic beverages will not be allowed into the venue premises. There would be sniffer dogs at most of these venues, and if caught, you might not be allowed inside.
- Animals (only service dogs will be available at venues such as the O2 Arena). Leave all pets at home.
- Confetti, glitter bombs, balloons.
- Wheeled footwear, helmets, full-face masks.
- Food and drinks will be made available inside the venue; finish whatever meal you have on you before queuing.
Additional tips
- Arrive early for parking and entry.
- Familiarise yourself with the venue layout.
- Take breaks if needed; concerts can be loud and crowded; however, check the venue’s policies because you may not be allowed to re-enter at some venues.
- Most of all, have fun and enjoy the show.
