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

[LukeD]

I am sensing that this will be her best tour production-wise after the TCWT. I do not think she will put together a minimalist show like in 2016 and in 2017. 

They have built anticipation, promoted the tour through posters, chose the biggest venue possible for what is viewed as her big comeback. I smell ambition and I like it! They clearly have a 'go big' mentality with this tour, aiming for maximum impact, and I am here for it!

You have described exactly what I'd been sensing 👍

Bring it on 🥳

I hope your right.. part of me wonders if Dragonè is working with her again… they comment on her posts a lot lately and have even posted stories the last few months at least twice.

 

But part of me wonders if they’ll just do a simple minimalist show because of the possible SPS triggers?

No chaotic costume changes, just a simple show. I'm all in for that. Though with word that Annie is working again for her I guess there will be some outfits! 

I wonder when the new posters are going to show up in the cities! Imagine just on your way to work and suddenly some familiar face is looking at you 😍

I believe the article in Paris match magazine says a new look of Celine will be unveiled (listed all the names of the cities… )By Monday. So I’m guessing simultaneously with the announcement.

also, there might not be more than one or two custom changes for all we know… Even with Annie back on board, remember the shows she did there after Rene‘s passing when Law did the outfits, I think she wore the same one for the entire show if I’m not mistaken, but they changed that particular costume weekly I believe.

What if it was Thomas Joly who was working on this tour with her for the mise en scene ?😁

Law never styled her for Vegas or the European tour, she definitely had outfit changes on tour, but I think if it’s vegas you're referring to I saw her in November ‘17 the show was nearly cancelled due to her having back spasms and I believe the lack of outfit changes after that were due to her wearing a back brace and needing to conceal it. 

[LukeD]

I still cannot fully believe this is happening! After all we have been through! Feels like some sort of resilience award!

Quite frankly, I have my doubts she will do more than one costume change. Maybe for the encore, but I just don’t think she will be doing her 5, 6, 7 costume changes in one night anymore. I imagine too many triggers and if she goes to bend the wrong way they can’t just stop the show because she goes into an episode… but I may be wrong, who knows?

Yes he did style her… 

this tour was by Law

I remember the first Givenchy look (the white long blouse and suit) she styled, but from that Siriano look on, was done by Law if I remember right. 
 

Didn’t she pick the first look out from the runway catalogue if memory serves?

Not fan of the 2016 Bercy look. I do not like the outfit, nor the jewelry, nor the hairstyle. I much prefer the work of Annie Horth to this.

The most beautiful she ever looked, IMO, was during her Bercy dates in 2012.  Those shows were also magical.

As great as Une Seule Fois was, id have killed for one of the Paris shows to be released. I'm glad we got the bonus tracks that were recorded there. That was a crazy inclusion on the cds.

Especially considering the drastic vocal difference between those shows and USF; though now we know why. My only singular gripe with the Paris shows was the lack of the 80s/early 90s uptempo medley from USF, other than that Regarde Moi, Je Ne Vous Oublie Pas, and Tout Lor Des Hommes were great inclusions.

For me the best she ever looked onstage was the launch of “Celine” 2011.

To me her best looks were from the TC era 2007 - 2008. Nothing beats this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8b25jjprfU

Celine’s team is playing a masterclass in hype management. That 'silence' was 100% part of the plan. Announcing Paris first is just a calculated tactic to make the comeback feel like a 'once-in-a-lifetime' event.

Everyone has different opinions but seems everyone agrees all the best looks are Annie Horth.
 

I think it was rumored that Celine won’t be staying at the hotel while in Paris, probably because with rehearsal time and shows she’ll be there 3+ months… so we likely won’t see the daily fashion walk outs like she did with Law. I think that’s why she chose Annie again over law. I’m sure even Celine knows for the stage Annie was better… however, law roach styled the crap outta Celine for street wear!  Rumor has it she was checking out homes/villas in Paris, to home base.

Then they shoulda WIPED out the socials and went dark before the reveal like many artists have done before their new eras. Instead they deleted a few posts. The team Celine has improved but still needs schooled 😂

Yes! She also looked hot here, especially the last olive green outfit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dpQmOdFNTw

I am secretly hoping she will get back to this hair colour!

I said it before and I will say it again. I am super happy with how they have handled things in 2026. I hope they maintain momentum now that Celine is coming back.

The “Taking Chances” era was all supreme! I remember seeing a young Ariana Grande credit Celine’s look onstage during that era as her inspiration around 2008-2011

I've been trying to picture a few times, what are they going to do if she's half way through a song on stage and her toes start cramping like in the documentary...just stop and 'Gotta go ppl it's happening again!' And everyone will understand...they'd seriously have to have that as part of a back up plan, a team ready to whisk her away or whatever

She looked so elegant and hot during this period 💃

So we can definitely expect no Barnev this time, right? I think it was back in 2023 when he said he wouldn’t join Céline’s band again when she came back as he wanted to focus on his solo career.

1996 FIY white suit was for me her very best Outfit.
I love that there is only one outfit as a signature. A change for the encore song why not, but I wish for this new tour something very simple, basic.
Celine and her voice … not a fashion show.

He said he would if she asked him…

I think it’s Elise we can expect won’t be there, since Denis reportedly stopped working with Céline in 2024.

She might be at a point where she’s able to control or snap out of an episode very quickly, or recover after one fast enough that she can be back to full capacity in a few minutes. 

I can imagine it would take that sort of control over her condition for her to return to doing full shows.
