Ariana Grande's album Petal has debuted at No. 1 on Australia's ARIA Albums Chart, the country's all-genres national survey, for the chart week dated 10 August 2026. The chart was published on Friday, 7 August 2026, per Billboard. Petal also opened at No. 1 on New Zealand's Aotearoa Top 40 Albums Chart, marking Grande's sixth No. 1 album there, as reported by The Music Network.

The Australian chart lead makes Petal Grande's sixth No. 1 album on the ARIA Albums Chart, following My Everything (2014), Dangerous Woman (2016), Sweetener (2018), Thank U, Next (2019) and Eternal Sunshine (2024). She also topped the same chart in 2025 alongside Cynthia Erivo with the soundtrack to Wicked: For Good.

Petal was the best-selling vinyl album during its debut cycle in Australia and placed 12 tracks in the top 50 of the national singles chart, according to Billboard. The lead single, 'hate that i made you love me,' rose from No. 6 to No. 2 — a new peak on the ARIA Singles Chart — following the album's release. The track had previously debuted at No. 2 on the singles chart in June 2026, as documented in ARIA's own chart report at the time. Petal also reached No. 1 on the U.S. iTunes Top Albums chart, as Forbes reported on 31 July 2026, leading one of only two new entries in that chart's top 10.

Behind Grande on the ARIA Albums Chart, Olivia Rodrigo's you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love climbed from No. 3 to No. 2, and Olivia Dean's The Art of Loving moved up from No. 5 to No. 3. On the ARIA Singles Chart, Ella Langley's 'Choosin' Texas' held the top spot for a ninth non-consecutive week.

Several debuts filled out the lower rungs of the albums chart. Dice's I Thought The Altitude Would Make it Worth The View entered at No. 13, a career-best for the Perth band. PNAU's AHHCade opened at No. 33, Erin LeCount's third EP Pareidolia landed at No. 29, Buffalo Traffic Jam's 'Pictures of You' arrived at No. 31, and Five Finger Death Punch's Legacy came in at No. 46.

What makes this chart week notable for Australian listeners is the breadth of it. A global pop star claiming the top slot is expected; twelve album tracks scattered across the singles top 50 is harder to achieve and points to heavy streaming penetration in the opening week. Meanwhile, the chart's lower half made room for a Perth indie band's career high, a local electronic act and a British EP — a reminder that the national survey still catches smaller releases in the same frame as the majors.

Grande now has six No. 1 albums on both the ARIA and Aotearoa charts. Whether Petal extends that run in other territories will depend on next week's results.
