Following a series of teaser posters displayed in the streets Paris, featuring titles of some of her iconic songs, Canadian superstar Céline Dion is now officially making a comeback.
The 57-year-old singer is set to return to the stage later this year, four years after being diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS).
Dion is reported to be preparing a twice-weekly residency this September and October at Paris La Défense Arena, according to French-Canadian newspaper La Presse.
The singer last headlined a show in Newark, New Jersey on 8 March 2020. Her Courage World Tour was subsequently cut short by the outbreak of the Covid pandemic.
She has not yet officially commented on the reports.
In 2022, Céline Dion was diagnosed with SPS, a rare and incurable neurological disorder that severely impacts mobility and the ability to sing. She cancelled the remaining dates of her tour the following year.
In a statement at the time, she said: “I’m working really hard to build back my strength, but touring can be very difficult even when you’re 100 per cent.”
Dion’s battle against this illness was chronicled in the 2024 documentary I Am: Céline Dion.
In 2024, she made a rare appearance at the Grammy Awards, where she received a standing ovation. That same year, she made a stage comeback at the Paris Olympics, singing Edith Piaf's ‘Hymne A L’Amour’ from the Eiffel Tower.
