The excursion marks her first gigs at the Bell Centre in seven years. In 2012 she appeared at Montreal’s Metropolis to take part in a benefit concert for the family of Denis Blanchette.
The last time she played Quebec City, more than 40,000 fans filled the Plains of Abraham venue to see the award-winning star. The July 2013 concert was filmed for her live album Céline une seule fois / Live 2013.
Dion still has plenty of Las Vegas residency dates lined up. Next year she’ll mark her 1,000 performance at The Colosseum At Caesars Palace. Shows through June 2016 are on sale now.
