Sabrina Carpenter was back on the road this weekend, and she brought fans along for the ride with a candid new photo set.

The singer-songwriter ended 2025 by wrapping up her popular Short n’ Sweet Tour amid the release of her latest album, Man’s Best Friend. She then kicked off the new year with several fun new feats, including a performance at the Grammy Awards, a guest spot on The Muppet Show and, on Sunday, March 15, she donned her sparkling one-piece bodysuits once more to headline Lollapalooza Argentina in Buenos Aires and Lollapalooza Chile in Santiago.

Carpenter takes fans along for festival stop

“Buenos Aires & Santiago! Two of the biggest and loudest crowds we’ve ever had the pleasure of playing for,” Carpenter wrote in the caption of her 19-photo carousel shared on Instagram Monday, March 16, “I am the luckiest girl!! Ya quiero volver! te amo te amo te amo ♡♡♡.”

In the cover photo, the superstar sported a high-neck bodysuit in 2026’s most popular color: ice blue. With silver detailing around the outline and a sweet fabric rosette in the center of her neck, Carpenter put an unexpected twist on her typical stage style. Her makeup was a spring-ready mix of coral cheeks, pink lips and dramatic eyelashes. Her long blonde tresses also got a switch-up, as the singer lost her signature fringe bang while the style grew out.

Other photos featured in the set showed the singer’s stage setup, the impressive size of the festival crowds and a sign crafted by her loyal fans. Still, the candid carousel didn’t only document her time on stage, with several snapshots capturing her off-time spent in South America. In one such snapshot, she enjoyed an ice cream cone in a patterned yellow mini dress. In another, she got comfy on a luxurious-looking bed while wearing a dreamy pink two-piece set.

What’s next for Carpenter?

As 2026 continues, Carpenter is slated to make more festival appearances. These include the upcoming Festival Estéreo Picnic in Colombia, the weekend of March 20, and, of course, she’ll be appearing at Coachella in April, where the superstar is slated to co-headline alongside Justin Bieber and Karol G.

As noted by Billboard, the gig will mark a fun, full-circle moment for Carpenter, as she played Coachella back in 2024, telling the audience at the time, “See you back here when I headline!” Just two years later, the pop sensation will do precisely that, joking in the initial announcement on Instagram that she is, indeed, a “woman of [her] word.”
