Céline Dion will go on — with a comeback tour! The singer will reportedly make a return to the stage for the first time since she performed at the 2024 Paris Olympics with a full concert series in Paris.
French-Canadian newspaper La Presse shared the news on Sunday, and a poster campaign in Paris followed with Dion’s iconic songs, such as “Pour que tu m’aimes encore” and “Power of Love,” appearing across the French capital. Dion also shared a carousel of photos of herself in Paris on 23 March.
Dion was scheduled to perform in Paris in 2020, but the concerts were cancelled as a result of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and her 2022 diagnosis with Stiff Person Syndrome.
At the time, she shared a video with fans about the spasms that resulted from the condition, which “affect every aspect of my daily life, sometimes causing difficulties when I walk and not allowing me to use my vocal cords to sing the way I’m used to.”
She went on, “It hurts me to tell you today, this means I won’t be ready to restart my tour in Europe in February. I have a great team of doctors working alongside me to help me get better and my precious children, who are supporting me and giving me hope. I’m working hard with my sports medicine therapist every day to build back my strength and my ability to perform again, but I have to admit, it’s been a struggle.”
Dion stepped back from performing, only returning in 2024 for her rendition of Edith Piaf’s “Hymne à l’amour” at the Paris Olympics. Dion also made an appearance at the 2024 Grammys where she presented Taylor Swift with Album of the Year.
