00:00Two weeks before Céline Dion's first concert in Paris, Dion Mania has reached a new peak in the city.
00:05In front of the Royal Monceau Luxury Hotel, where she will be staying for the next two months,
00:10a crowd gathered to welcome the singer.
00:12On Friday, August 28, Céline Dion arrived in Paris to begin rehearsals for her historic concert series.
00:18Her schedule is packed with 16 concerts scheduled between September 12 and October 17.
00:24In total, the singer has scheduled three concerts per week on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
00:30Each will draw more than 30,000 spectators and all have been sold out for months.
00:35Ten additional concerts were added in May 2027.
00:39Aside from a performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Céline hasn't sung in France for nearly 10 years.
00:46Yet the love story between Céline Dion and France is enduring.
00:50In total, 15 of her 27 studio albums have been recorded in French.
00:54It's therefore no surprise that the singer chose Paris for her grand return to the stage.
01:00For six years, Céline took a break from performing for health reasons.
01:05The star has difficulty singing due to stiff person syndrome, from which she suffers.
