Event summary

Highlights

Celine Dion's first full concert in six years
Performance after overcoming stiff person syndrome
Start of a 26-show engagement
Included hits like "My Heart Will Go On" and "The Power of Love"

The concert on September 12, 2026, lasted 2 hours and 15 minutes, featuring 25 songs before tens of thousands of attendees. Dion, who was diagnosed with stiff person syndrome in 2022 and had not played a full concert since March 2020, delivered a powerful performance despite the challenges of her illness, which affects muscles and the larynx.

This initial concert in Nanterre is part of a demanding schedule for Dion, with 16 shows planned over five weeks and an additional 10 performances booked for May 2027. She conveyed to the audience, "Je vais bien" ("I'm doing fine"), and performed iconic songs such as "My Heart Will Go On" and "The Power of Love," alongside Catalani’s “Ebben? Ne andrò lontana.” The stage production included a set of gray megaliths and an 18-voice gospel choir, with notable figures like Michelle Obama in attendance.
