It's been wonderful in Paris. I turned on the radio this morning and they were talking about it, posters are showing up all over the city, my fiance was at a political event yesterday and everyone was talking about it - this is absolutely an event 

To me, Paris is the perfect place for a comeback like that. Better than Vegas for sure, but also better than - I know this will be controversial - better than Montreal.

I give up trying to create an AXS account. Tried everything - different e-mails, devices, networks, cleaned cache, cookies and so on. At least the La Defense presale register has worked.

Yeah seems Vegas won't be happening for awhile. I know that was the plan before the Courage tour even ended. 
Part of me thinks she just wanted to scrap those plans all together. Plans made before her SPS was fully known. A more fresh start so to speak. 

Probably won't realistically be able to see her but I'm excited for her coming back! 

It's really a shame about the ticket situation though. I'm hoping we see more of her before the concerts begin, but I'm not really expecting it. Does she look happier in the videos she posted yesterday? She sounds happier for sure! But she always sounds better when she's really there with the audience

It’s definitely on the cards though 😉

Also, Dee hasn’t reposted anything like she normally does… she had a different hairstylist for this shoot… I wonder if it’s permanent or was just for this new look. Annie posted on her instagram and give credit to the hair and makeup artists too…Dee wasn’t involved and tbh hope the new ones stay, they did good. 

From what I've seen, Dee follows the accounts that Annie tagged and seems to be working with in this new era. So my guess is she's part of the new team.

Vegas worked when she could do loads of shows. If SPS now allows her to do only 10 shows at a time, this would mean an audience of 40.000 people in the Colosseum. 

I think she is at a point in her career where she wants to maximize attendance and minimize the number of shows. Very sensible.

I’m actually excited about the person who is the creative director of the shows… he was also the creative director for the photoshoot and has worked with Adele and Beyoncé… he did the  Renaissance tour for Beyoncé..

I think he stage was very modern and sleek and I think based on the fashion shoot, that Celine may do a very sleek and glamorous design. IM happy getting to see her work with new people…

now the band, who’s back and who’s not? I see Dawn liking the posts, no Barnev love but he’s also busy and Dawn is Dennis Savage wife so we don’t know how that ended, but to be honest Dennis Savage and Dave Platel who I’m sure are great seemed a bit cold in the documentary. 

Denis Savage's wife is Elise, not Dawn.

Worldwide coverage.  It’s safe to say that Celine Dion is absolutely everywhere right now:

What do we think Céline’s voice will be like when she returns? What can we expect to see? 2017 level vocal or? 

Similar to 2011-2015 I would guess/hope

Yes but this could be a test run to see how her body responds… if all goes well this tour then going forward it’s very likely they will continue tweaking it from two shows a week, eventually to three a week, maybe even four who knows. I’m not convinced Celine would want to do that but it’s entirely possible with the work ethic we all know that she has.

Yes it was the billboard music awards one of her best looks ever!

i wish zhane would stay and I thought when we seen her at the Wynn concert with Celine that she might but nope.

 

 

I'm probably the only person who doesn't love that look. Like, everything about it is nice but it's not nearly as good as some of her other looks in those years, in my opinion.

2026 and trying to get concert tickets has never been more difficult or stressful!

Another thing, when they asked us to sign up two months ago for announcements and news… what was that about?

Did anyone get an email?  🙄

What was that about? - TO GET DATA!!!

Also, if she does settle to Vegas… It’s entirely possible that she will choose to do a residency at the sphere, the sphere has a capacity to hold 20,000 seats if using the floor, and 17,000 without. That’s four times the amount of seats as resorts world or the Colosseum and still Vegas residency.

Guys, how can I register for the presale? T tried through the official website yesterday and I had to wait for ever, today nothings works. 

[drove all night]

Again Austria's most viewed webpage orf.at showed a video of yesterday's Eiffel Tower show on the top news-videos today. Unfortunately very bad cut together.

Translation of the text: "Light Show for Celine Dion at the Eiffel Tower in Paris
In Paris, Canadian singer Celine Dion’s announced return to the stage was celebrated with a light show on the Eiffel Tower. Dion last performed in Paris in 2024, closing the spectacular opening ceremony of the Olympic Games."

At this stage, will any hardcore fan attend any show? 😁

This is so messed up and unfair. And sad. 

Curious to know if anyone on this board will get an access? 

The odds are against us. 

Still waiting for TC to advise me before anyone about the tour. 🤣

The presale is a lottery, yes. But the general sale is open to everyone at the same time. And there are surely no casuals out there as obsessed as us who would be able to get their hands on those tickets before us! 💪

For me switching to Google Chrome worked amazingly well. Went from waiting hours to less than a minute. Hope it helps!

I think it's safe to say that the General Sale is a joke...

It was a joy today to hear her being talked about on every radio station and on ITV and BBC news in the UK 👏🏻

Ah ok, I've never actually bought during the general sale. Only presale for Céline in the past and resale for other artists lol

She was everywhere on the news today, radio, television, talkshows. Amazing to see her power!

Evenko, Montréal Bell Center promoter, reshared her message in their Instagram Stories whishing her the best. I guess that confirms Montréal. My bet is that they will annonce it after Paris is sold out, around the launch of the new single. 10 shows, same paris schedule for november or early 2027.

Anybody seen this website? Beware where you book your tickets!

[Ajax]

My only concern is that it is marketed so far as the only residency and way to see Celine, to bring an international audience to Paris. So it won’t be a true French show as she is used to do in Paris (with still some big English hit) lots of my friends don’t care about the English Celine and will be disappointed.
