16 concert residency at La Defense Arena in Paris in September/October 2026

I just hope for anything from 1F4T... never really understood why that album didn't get more tour coverage, but hearing Le Vol D'Un Ange in the EUS tour was a special moment!

Is there not somwhere else that the set list speculations can go to save the sanity of those who aren't into that?

Oh nooo was hoping their samples were the same size... maybe this? https://www.etsy.com/sg-en/listing/1771079728/custom-embroidered-cap-with-text3d Seems like they'd all use the same machine though...

The alternative is an iron-on patch that folks can put on hats/shirts wherever they want https://www.etsy.com/sg-en/listing/4466283641/custom-embroidered-logo-hat-patch-iron 

I'm gonna try with my local store (and see if they can do some luminescent/glow in the dark green too!) – mind DMing the full image? I'll go on an etsy hunt with as well!

I feel a print will look cheap and tacky, it has to be embroidered if it’s a hat

Setlists are still more relevant than clothes🙄

I dislike both equally. I don't see the point in speculating.

Yup you can do iron on embroidered patches! They can get real big/intricate. https://www.etsy.com/sg-en/listing/1384920947/custom-embroidered-patch-free-shipping

The problem is it might not sit so well if then velcroed onto a hat, but it's a size tradeoff

[Céline RO]

I understand all the SPS concerns, but I would honestly be surprised if the show was significantly shorter than 2 hours. 

Probably around 20 songs and lots of taking and ovations.

To be honest, given what Céline is doing (e.g. adding shows on consecutive nights) and communicating to us (e.g. “I will still sing TPOL with all my heart”), I really don’t expect her to appear limited in any way during these shows. I don’t expect easier songs, more lipsync, shorter shows or less moving around. I think there will be a lot of stuff that happens behind the scenes that we don’t see, but Céline is obviously telling us that she will be a true force when she steps onto that Paris stage, everything we’ve come to expect from her and more.

My God, Seduces Me always brings tears to my eyes, the music and lyrics are perfection and Céline’s vocals were so on point with every single note. Isn’t it incredible how powerful music can be?

What’s her most unexpected song you would dream of her performing live? For me, it might be Real Emotion, which never fails to put me in a good mood. And Miles to Go Before I Sleep, which is one of my favorite things to look up on YouTube, that studio session really shows how she understands music.

Seduces Me suits Celine's voice perfectly❤️,I love all her performances of this song!! For the most unexpected I would say Halfway to Heaven which I have no idea why she never perform it live, I mean this song showcase Celine's musicality to the max lv!! The way she plays with the saxophone (The great Kenny G!!) is pure enjoyment for me🥹 Indeed, if having a chance to listen to La religieuse, Le monde est stone, I Believe In You, and Water From The Moon live would be more than great, and anything from 1F4T!!! I ADORE this album🥰

THIS!!! I still rmb how stunned I was to hear Et je t'aime encore and Le vol d'un ange during the EUS tour😭 So as Apprends-moi and Rien n'est vraiment fini, would be great to hear them live!!!🥹

I think we also have to bear in mind aside from SPS that she last performed in her early 50s and is now in her late 50s. She would most likely have slowed down a bit and her voice would have changed a bit in that time anyway.

[rfkavanagh]

I'd imagine it's quite likely we'll have a few extended interludes during the show to give Céline a chance to catch her breath, etc. - at least at first until they see how things go and how she feels.  Presumably they'll have done many full-length run-throughs ahead of time to verify and increase her stamina, but it's still no comparison to the full-on energy and atmosphere generated by 30k people going crazy.  

Interludes a little longer than the standard wardrobe change ones could be an opportunity for some other kind of entertainment for a few minutes - maybe a chance for dancers/performers/special guests to show their stuff?  Pre-shot video segments?  Of course I'd rather have Céline the whole time, but it would be an understandable accommodation given her age and her health.  I'm really curious to see how it all comes together!

This will clearly be a greatest hits show. Those of you who are expecting deep cuts are up for disappointment. The tour appealed to the general public like never before. This obviously signals that they will have to cater for the average casual listener rather than the hardcore fans. Not to mention that this had been framed as a greatest hits tour anyway. Enjoy the 'It's All Coming Back To Me Now', 'Because You Loved Me', 'The Power Of Love' medley and be thankful! 😅

A greatest hits concert is fine with me, as long as the arrangements are stellar (and not boring and accustic) and as long as the song choice is good. No covers and bad choices, please! 

[Alex_Incognito]

Her shows have almost always been greatest hits.

As expected, it’s the random tributes that take up 1/3 of her previous shows that I hope are gone… either add more hits or add some b-sides please LORD no “Another One Bites The Dust” 💨 🤣

I had already erased that from my memory.

What we all truly want to know of course is if Barnev will get his own traditional mini concert during the show. 🤪

Dreams can come true. Let's just put him as opening act, have him performing lcmm and rdmh so we can get them out of the way

Will be interesting to see if he’s there.  He just released his 2nd album at the end of March.

Exactly… respect to dead artists of course…

But at the same time, fcuk em… I no longer want a tribute section to artists I never cared about, when I paid a lot of money to see Céline.

She herself said in recent years, she could have died due to what she did to overcome her health issues to perform.

So, she and her music should be celebrated more than ever from now on, not some other artists as a tribute section… we are so lucky that she’s able to perform again and we are here for her music, show it off Céline. ☺️

I'm pretty sure she does those covers for herself to keep it fresh for herself. And for the poor husband that followed his wife to the concert and is happy to hear something familiar.   For the rest of us it's murder.

[LeChauffeur100]

I think the Beatles’, John Farnham’s or the Carpenters’ version of Help is almost certainly in. I love Carpenters so that would be fine for me.

[Dancing_Queen]

Guys come on, don't set yourself up for disappointment. You know she loves other people's music. She'll do covers for sure.

Agreed. I’ve always felt that apart from her natural desire to cover other people’s songs she loves, it was something to break up the monotony of her usual songs she felt she was “expected” to stick to- mind you the longer the covers stuck around she clearly got bored with them too, so really I think there should be swap outs for songs that can be interchanged nightly or every other night, which is certainly possible but at the end of the day it’s up to her. 

[KyleVan41]

She may do “I love you” for the first time since the increase in popularity !

Actually, she should if her team is in her ear !

Oh right I was randomly watching it on YT and surprised to see how many views it has! Any reason it got popular..? Or just one of those things? Did it ever get radio play? (Certainly not in asia)

We are laughing… but Barnev just released his solo album, it’s probably a real possibility that he asks Celine in order to return to have an opening act spot.

 

As long  can sing his new song… and LCMM, RDMH and BATB with a hologram Celine , and get those outta the way I say go for it! 🤣 

[Nmj]

As it concerns “cover” songs… there have been a few I’ve actually enjoyed just not the random ones… i prefer the one stand alone ones like “How Do You Keep The Music Playing” and “At 17” even “The Show Must Go On”…. Sing one great cover if you must Cèline and keep it moving 🤣 

I don’t think anyone wants 35 minutes of dead people tributes! I will say though tho Bond Medley in 2011 was pretty stellar in the “Celine” show, the staging was also great for that!
