Celine Dion is preparing for a major concert comeback in France, after her stage return at the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony performing Edith Piaf’s «Hymne A L’Amour», Variety reports.
The announcement, first reported by French-Canadian newspaper La Presse, was hinted at with posters of Dion’s hit songs, including «Pour que tu m’aimes encore» and «Power of Love,» appearing across Paris.
Dion is set to perform a series of shows at the Paris La Defense Arena starting this autumn. The 40,000-seat venue, recently acquired by Live Nation, has previously hosted artists such as Taylor Swift, the Rolling Stones and Kendrick Lamar. She is expected to give two concerts a week in September and October.

The Paris dates were originally part of her 2020 Courage World Tour but were postponed due to the pandemic and then delayed further because of Dion’s health. In 2022, she was diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological and autoimmune disorder causing muscle stiffness that affects walking and singing.
Her journey with the condition was featured in the 2024 documentary «I Am: Celine Dion,» directed by Irene Taylor. Dion was also recently interviewed for a French documentary on M6, highlighting her creative collaboration with singer-songwriter and producer Jean-Jacques Goldman.
