Celine Dion Announces 2026 Paris Residency Dates, Says She’s Feeling ‘Strong’ After Health Battle

"I've felt your prayers and support, your kindness and love," the singer said.

Les rumeurs étaient vraies. After much speculation, Celine Dion has officially announced that she’s planning her epic live comeback with a concert residency at La Défense Arena in Paris, sharing the news on Monday (March 30) — her 58th birthday — in a video that was broadcast beneath the city’s iconic Eiffel Tower.

“I’ve recorded a lot of birthday messages, but this is the first time I’ve ever recorded one for my own birthday,” the vocalist begins in the clip, which was also posted to her social media channels. “I want to let you know that I’m doing great, managing my health, feeling good. I’m singing again, even doing a little dancing.”
