Yes! I was just about to ask that...I figured it must be because of high traffic maybe?

New article from Le Point. In first articles they mentioned her website for the ticketsale. This one also mentions it. I'm curious on how they will handle it.

At noon Los Angeles time, which is 9 p.m. in France, the Quebec diva, who recently emptied her Instagram account, will release the visuals that will serve as posters for her comeback! 

The big posters for her comeback will be plastered all over Paris, London, New York, Milan, Brussels, and… Montreal, of course, starting Tuesday, March 31st. On the Paris ring road, drivers can admire her even more by seeing a huge banner featuring the singer near the Porte de Saint-Ouen, a location that is nothing less than the largest advertising space available in France! 

Tickets will go on sale in early April. Expect exorbitant prices, at least 200 euros for the best seats. Those interested in attending will need to register beforehand on the website celinedion.com , which will manage all ticket sales.

I fully expected 200 euro for the best seat. I could be wrong but I feel the best seats for Dublin back in 2019 cost about 180 euro? I got 5 and it came to around 1000 euro. Add the booking fee etc. 

tbh if they’re 200 euro I don’t think that’s bad given it’s Celine and the demand

Koolan messaged me to say the server is experiencing a DDOS attack, the host is taking measures to counter it. 

It's those pesky Lambs! (not really we love them).

I can't wait to hear the buzz from the general public about seeing our queen in their face everywhere 🥳🥳😍😍

I was mentioning this to Stevo… as the forum gets busier it seems to struggle.

On another note I am thinking that 200 euro is probably the cheaper side of available seats based on concerts in recent years not the best seats, but I hope I’m wrong and Céline and her team are doing his right, for everyone to afford the chance to attend. 
 

I’m already getting anxious about getting a decent seat and I don’t even know when they are going on sale yet 🫨

For the cancelled 2020 show I had front row set in front of Celine and I payed around 550 euros. So I guess the comeback and inflation, the five first rows could be around 1000 euros… and still so difficult to get

I struggled with it all morning but now it seems to be running smoothly again. Is that the case for everyone or are there still issues?

I hope the production of the new show is huge and they plan to film it and release it on Blu-ray, they're complete fools if they don't,this is literally the biggest comeback in music history!!! And they should upload the video of the opening and the first song on the first night on YouTube as soon as the show is over, imagine the hype and the views,it will be fxxking epic,and it will be good pre-promotion for the Blu-ray release! 

I honestly can’t imagine producing a BluRay is going to be a focus anymore- very few people buy physical discs these days, so if anything, it’ll be recorded and released on Amazon Prime or Netflix like Beyoncé & Taylor Swift’s last tours…

Can y’all believe we’re finally here?? That they have actually been planning and plotting and doing things behind the scenes when we’ve been pulling our hair out!! 
 

Are we of the opinion that Paris won’t be the only city that has a concert series? 

[Peppercorn1991]

The article also says she has recorded songs in both English and French.  We may be on the right lines that we will get both in some form!

I hope the forum won’t fail us at the most anticipated time in a very long time! 🙏 

So excited!  Can’t think about anything else at the moment!

Wow, so they are gonna drag it out until 9pm Paris time and that’s 3pm in NYC or east coast here in the States, sounds like a super late launch and won’t get the morning hype.

No it was an attack on the server, someone malicious was overloading it to stop it working. Why people do such things is beyond me.

[stevo]

How would everyone feel about a mixed English & French album? Does it really matter these days, as people rarely buy a full album? I’d quite like the idea for her as a return

Actually brought this up in the French album thread and have been talking about it for a while now that maybe it could be the plan? Im okay with it!

I love the idea actually - it doesn’t matter as you say. The world is so connected nowadays.  It wouldn’t be a bad idea in my opinion to introduce her French music more to the world. I think they started doing this with EUS didn’t they on the today show if I remember…

I think now is probably the right time to mix things up.  The main point is that the music has to be amazing, and if it is, everything will be fine.

Are they still actively doing it? Because now I’m able to login and then it happens again and I’m back and then again lol…

There is no way the best seat ticket costs 200 Euros. I saw Celine live in 2017 and I had a good seat which cost more than £300, if memory serves me right. Seats for the front rows were up to £500. Also, the ticket I had purchased for the Courage World Tour, for a similar type of seat, in the middle of the venue cost like £350. 

A VIP ticket to see Harry Styles in 2026 costs like $1500. Let that sink in. I really think Celine will definitely step up her game. It is a new era, everything is more expensive. l'll probably need to pay like 500 Euros for a seat similar to the one I had in 2017. I am all prepared for this! But please do not think tickets will be cheap, no way.

Part of me thinks we may be getting two albums as why else have these posters in multiple countries on the same day?  
 

Just a thought.

I’m somewhat torn on a mixed album.  For me there is a creative and artistic difference between her French albums and English ones.  If they were to mix them together they would have be very strategic in choosing the songs so they’d blend well together.  Except if it were a 2 disc album, where on disc was English and one French.  Even then it may be a hard sell in English markets.  Guess we’ll soon enough what they have prepared for us.

Well,if you want the best image and sound quality, Blu-ray is still the best choice, imagine watching the show in 4K HDR and hearing it in TrueHD! And Céline is not Beyonce nor TS,she's the greatest singer of all time,her big comeback to music deserves a PHYSICAL RELEASE!🤨

I have thought the same. I feel this will be marketed as a global event and not just a Paris event.  Not saying I think there will be shows in other cities, but more that they want a global campaign celebration more than just a series of concerts. At least that’s the feeling I’m getting.

As I drove into Paris arriving the 16th at the Porte d'Auteuil where I spend my time here I saw a "My heart will go on" poster
