Victorious stars Ariana Grande with Liz Gillies and Matt Bennett reunite at the Eternal Sunshine tour
Victorious cast members have reunited 13 years after the Nickelodeon show ended.
The trio – Liz Gillies, Matt Bennett, and Ariana Grande – were spotted at the singer’s Eternal Sunshine Tour as they posed for behind-the-scenes snaps.
Liz is best known for her role as the fiery Jade West, Matt played the nerdy and somewhat eccentric Robbie Shapiro, and Ariana portrayed the quirky redhead Cat Valentine.
The show has gained a huge following since it first aired on the children’s channel in 2010.
Ariana, who has recently bagged a huge role in the Wicked films, has been taking to the stage in support of her seventh studio album, Eternal Sunshine (2024), and its 2025 reissue, subtitled Brighter Days Ahead.
The tour commenced on June 6, 2026, at Oakland Arena in Oakland, California, and is scheduled to conclude on September 1 at The O2 Arena in London. It features 41 shows across North America and Europe.
In March 2024, Ariana released her seventh studio album, Eternal Sunshine, which debuted to critical and commercial success.
She then spoke out about wanting to perform live shows for the album during an episode of the Shut Up Evan podcast.
“I still want it, too,” Grande told host Evan Ross Katz of kicking off a new tour. “I think it would be a really lovely idea to be able to trickle in some shows in between the two Wicked films. I think there’s a version of that that exists.”
At the time, Grande explained that a full-scale world tour was unlikely at the time due to her commitments filming Wicked and balancing other projects, saying she wanted to find a way to connect with fans while working around her busy schedule.
She said that it’ll likely be a “mini sampling of shows” instead.
“I do think it’d be really nice to do that,” she added, “and it’s something my team and I are working on coming up with options for.”
Fans have gone crazy for the pictures of the Victorious trio, with one person writing: “Seeing the Victorious cast reunited like this is pure nostalgia, we really need a revival movie at this point.”
A second person wrote: “Ari bringing her day ones on tour is so wholesome..”
“Ariana, Liz & Matt reunion hits different. Cat, Jade & Robbie together again!! Victorious nostalgia is unmatched,” a third person added.
“Victorious reunion vibes! Cat, Jade & Robbie back together is everything. Nostalgia hit hard,” a fourth social media user wrote.
“Ariana, Liz & Matt together backstage at the Eternal Sunshine Tour is pure nostalgia! That friendship still strong after all these years. So proud of you Ari,” another fan commented.
