Fans won’t Think Twice about getting tickets
It’s official! After weeks of whisperings, Céline Dion has announced her return to the stage, performing a series of shows in Paris later this year.
The iconic Canadian pop powerhouse will play a 10-show residency at Paris La Défense Arena, France through September and October 2026, and she “cannot wait” to see her fans again.
The five-time GRAMMY winner cancelled her proposed Las Vegas residency in 2021 due to health issues, before revealing her stiff person syndrome (SPS) diagnosis in December 2022, forcing her to call off her planned Courage world tour.
Addressing fans in a social media post, Céline said: “Hi everyone. You know, in my career, I’ve recorded a lot of birthday messages, but this is the first time I’ve ever recorded one for my own birthday.
“Wow, it’s been kind of hard keeping it a secret from myself, but I want to let you know that I’m doing great, managing my health, feeling good.
“I’m singing again, even doing a little bit of dancing – I love it so much. I have to tell you something very important.
“Over these last few years, every day that’s gone by, I felt your prayers and support, your kindness and love, even in my most difficult times, you were there for me.
“You’ve helped me in ways that I can’t even describe, and I’m truly so fortunate to have your support. I’ve missed you so much.
“And that brings me back to my birthday, actually. So, this year, I’m getting the best gift of my life. I’m getting the chance to see you, to perform for you once again in Paris, beginning in September this year.”
Céline continued: “I’m so happy. I’m so ready to do this. I’m feeling good. I’m strong, I’m feeling excited, obviously, of course, a little nervous.
“But most of all, I am grateful to all of you. I can’t wait to see you again. Well, happy birthday to me. I love you all, and I’ll see you soon.
“Big kisses and goodbye for now, see you soon.”
