Show Celine Live in Las Vegas May 2018

“You know, it’s been quite a while since we’ve done a show. I had a little health issue ... don’t we all. But I have to tell you, I’m extremely happy to be back. The stage is kind of my home away from home, in a way. And I have to admit ... I can barely stand on my feet tonight, which means I am a little bit nervous."

“It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been on stage … there's always some butterflies … I don't take anything for granted. You can see so many shows in Las Vegas … and you have chosen to be with us. We are very happy and grateful that you have chosen us." - Celine Dion

ENCORE UN SOIR 2016

Céline Dion

Date of Birth
30 March 1968, Charlemagne, Quebec, Canada
Birth Name
Céline Marie Claudette Dion

From humble beginnings in a rural French Canadian home town, Céline Dion has risen to international superstardom like a shooting star. Céline has been called the premier contemporary pop vocalist of the Nineties. She has earned music industry accolades from around the world: Grammy Awards in the US, Juno and Felix Awards in Canada, and World Music Awards in Europe. The entire world has seen Céline Dion literally transform herself from a gifted pre-adolescent into an international superstar.

Born in Charlemagne (a small town 30 miles east of Montreal, Quebec, Canada), Céline is the youngest of 14 children of a highly musical family. Her parents, both musicians, operated a small club, and on weekends, the entire family performed and entertained the local population. From the tender age of 5, Céline sang with her siblings and quickly acquired the ability to perform live. At the age of twelve, together with her mother and one of her brothers, Céline composed a French song which would forever alter the course of her life.

The demo tape containing the song was brought to the attention of René Angélil, a well respected personal manager. In January 1981, René was so taken by the voice of the young Céline, that he became determined to make her an internationally known talent - he even mortgaged his house to finance the recording of Céline's debut album!

Céline began to receive recognition for her talent in 1982, winning the Gold Medal at the Yamaha World Song Festival in Tokyo, along with the coveted Musician's Award for Top Performer. In 1983, she became the first Canadian ever to receive a Gold Record in France.

By 1988, Céline had established a strong name for herself in her native province of Quebec, where she was enjoying superstar status, receiving numerous Felix Awards and racking up platinum albums. That same year, Céline won the prestigious Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin Ireland, where she performed live before a television audience of 600 million viewers throughout Europe, the USSR, the Middle-East, Japan, and Australia.

In September, 1990 Céline released 'Unison' - her first English-language album and her first for Sony Music - and scored a breakthrough US hit with the Top 5 single "Where Does My Heart Beat Now".

Céline's international breakthrough came when she recorded the title track for the soundtrack to the animated Disney hit movie 'Beauty and the Beast.' The song went to number one and garnered an Academy Award and a Grammy Award. "Beauty and the Beast" formed the cornerstone for Céline's second English language album, called simply 'Céline Dion.' That album produced four more hit singles including "Love Can Move Mountains," "Water From The Moon," "If You Asked Me To" and "Did You Give Enough Love." In Canada, the album went six times platinum and set the stage for an incredible streak of Juno Awards.

On December 17, 1994, Céline Dion and René Angélil were married at Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal.

"This Tour is about traveling around the world
to meet with you.
It's about experiencing your country...your people,
your culture.

It's a chance for my family to learn more about you...
especially my seven-year old son.
It's about looking you in the eye and saying
I love you through my songs...both old and new.

It's about sharing with you,the woman in me,in
all its diversity:wife,mother,sister,friend,singer.
You know,I love performing live on a stage,and
is has been an absolute joy for me to prepare this
new show for you...and sing for you tonight.

Thank you for sharing this evening with us,and
have a wonderful time.
My heart goes out to each every one of you."
Love,
