The suspense is now over: Céline Dion will be back on stage with a series of concerts in Paris.
This was finally announced on Monday afternoon on the Quebec icon’s Instagram account.
The publication specifies that the shows will be given from September and that the presale will start on April 7.

“I have to tell you something very important. Over the past few years, every day that has passed, I have felt your prayers and support, your kindness and your love,” the singer said in the video released on her 58th birthday.
“This year, I am receiving the most valuable gift of my life. I will have the chance to see you, to perform in front of you, once again, in Paris,” she continued.
Several clues had already been left for a few days about a potential return to the stage of the Quebec singer.
Posters had appeared in the streets of Paris on March 23, where the titles of some of his greatest hits were simply inscribed, such as “My Heart Will Go On” or “S’il suffisait d’aimer”.
The Quebec singer had also shared several photos of herself in Paris in the days before the announcement.
Dion’s comeback will take place nearly two years after her memorable performance from the Eiffel Tower of Edith Piaf’s “Hymne à l’amour” at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games.
In 2022, Dion was diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare condition that causes muscle rigidity and spasms, which affects her ability to walk and sing.
She has been absent from the stage since 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic led to the postponement of her “Courage World Tour”. The singer then suspended her activities in the wake of her diagnosis.
