The Canadian music icon is said to be planning a return to the stage with a series of shows in the French capital, as she continues to manage Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS).
Speculation intensified on Monday after the names of several of Dion’s hit songs, including My Heart Will Go On and The Power of Love, appeared on posters across the streets of Paris.
The hitmaker appeared to offer a further hint on Monday, posting a series of photographs of herself in Paris over the years.
The live return will follow her widely praised performance at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she sang a rendition of Édith Piaf’s Hymne à l’amour from the Eiffel Tower.
According to French-Canadian newspaper La Presse, Dion is expected to begin the run this autumn at the Paris La Défense Arena, performing twice weekly throughout September and October.
The 57-year-old singer has yet to confirm the plans publicly.
Her appearance at the Paris Olympics marked her first live performance since March 2020, and her first in France since her 2017 European tour.
In 2022, Dion cancelled all scheduled shows after being diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological autoimmune disorder that causes muscle stiffness and can affect mobility and vocal ability.
Before her diagnosis, she had already been forced to postpone performances due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
