The new dates, scheduled throughout May 2027, bring her Paris residency to a total of 26 performances, making it one of the largest concert events ever staged in France.

A highly anticipated comeback

The Canadian superstar first revealed plans for her Paris residency earlier this year, marking her first major concert series in France since 2017.

The shows will take place between September and October 2026 before returning for a second run in May 2027 at Paris La Défense Arena, Europe's largest indoor venue.

The announcement follows the sale of more than 480,000 tickets, with many fans missing out due to unprecedented demand.

Returning after health challenges

Dion stepped away from performing in recent years to focus on managing Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological condition that affects movement and muscle control.

Her recovery journey was documented in the 2024 film I Am: Céline Dion, while her emotional performance during the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games marked her first major appearance back on the world stage.

In a recent message to fans, the singer reassured supporters about her health, saying she is doing well and has returned to singing.
