The concert at Paris's Plenitude Arena saw Céline Dion open with her early hit 'On Ne Change Pas' to an audience of 30,000 fans. She performed songs from both her French and English repertoires, including renditions of 'The Power of Love' and 'My Heart Will Go On,' with fans describing her performance as 'operatic' and 'majestic.' Despite a 45-minute delay, attendees noted her emotional yet strong, passionate, and confident stage presence.

Dion thanked the crowd for their support and patience, fulfilling her promise to return to the stage. Fans from around the world gathered, with many streaming into the arena wearing Céline Dion t-shirts. Prior to the show, Dion greeted fans who had gathered at her Paris hotel. The event was supported by an "impressive marketing machine" throughout Paris, featuring her songs in Champs-Élysées restaurants, billboard ads near the Arc de Triomphe, and limited-edition macarons at Galeries Lafayette.

This concert was the first in a planned series of shows. One report indicated 16 sold-out performances were scheduled, while another mentioned 25 shows on the agenda in the French capital. Plenitude Arena management also took legal action against fraudulent online ticket sellers, setting up a booth to assist potential victims.
