Overview
- The residency opened on Saturday, September 12, 2026, at the Plenitude Arena in Nanterre with the first of 16 shows running through October and ten additional dates planned for next May.
- Organizers sold roughly 480,000–500,000 tickets after about 9 million people entered the presale draw, leaving every performance at or near capacity and generating intense demand and secondary‑market pressure.
- Fans turned central Paris into a rallying point before the first show with nightly gatherings outside her hotel, giant karaoke events, and a tribute projection on the Tuileries Olympic vasque the night before the opening.
- Practical measures for attendees include digital‑only tickets displayed via the Fan Wallet app and possible ID checks at entry, while local authorities and transit agencies have boosted services to manage crowds.
- Reports in several outlets say Dion has released new French singles and worked with francophone artists, but those collaborations and a full new album remain reported and not fully confirmed, and economic impact figures of about €1–1.5 billion are projections.
