Celine Dion Live 2017
Céline Dion Live 2017 was the thirteenth concert tour by French Canadian singer Celine Dion. The tour was organized to support Dion's 2016 French-language studio album, Encore un Soir. For the anglophone shows, Dion performed her song "How Does a Moment Last Forever" (from the 2017 version of "Beauty and the Beast"), along with a selection of rare songs and fan favourites. With twenty five shows, the tour began in Copenhagen, Denmark on 15 June 2017 and concluded on 5 August 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.
After Dion's large-scale Taking Chances World Tour in 2008-2009 in support of her album Taking Chances, she began a new concert residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in 2011, with a contract running through 2019. On 25 January 2017, Dion's official website announced sixteen shows in Europe scheduled for the summer of 2017. Tickets for those dates went on sale to the general public on 3 February 2017. Eight additional concerts—in London, Paris, Lille, Manchester, Birmingham, and Berlin—were later added. On 31 March 2017, the SSE Hydro posted an intimation of a concert in Glasgow, Scotland. Full details were released during the first week of April 2017. Véronic DiCaire joined Dion as the opening act.
On 14 June 2017, it was announced that both shows scheduled at Manchester Arena on 25 June and 1 August would be rescheduled due to the ongoing investigation following the Manchester Arena bombing. The concerts were moved to the First Direct Arena in Leeds, United Kingdom, and took place on 25 June 2017 and 2 August 2017.
The tour received positive reviews. The Independent rated the concert five stars out of five, calling it "a flawless show with zero pretence" and praising Dion's "unstoppable vocals". The Guardian rated the concert four stars out of five. London Evening Standard also awarded four stars out of five, noting that Dion "didn't just crank out soulful power ballads" and describing her as "a stage-strutting, air-punching, kiss-blowing bundle of fun, gratitude, and good humour". Gay Times also praised the show, writing that Dion proved she was very much at the height of her career. In a positive review, Metro wrote that Dion's "vocals can easily be considered the eighth wonder of the world". According to the Official Charts Company, Dion's concert was "almost a religious experience". Her concert in Leeds on 25 June was given a five star rating by the Manchester Evening News. Performing on a stage with a backdrop reading "Leeds in loving support of Manchester", Dion was praised for her energy and for delivering a note and pitch perfect performance.
Dion sold out all of her European concerts. She also broke records across the United Kingdom as the highest-grossing artist at each UK venue where she performed.
Dion's team recorded two shows in Paris (8 and 9 July) as well as two shows in London (29 and 30 July). However, there has been no confirmation regarding a possible CD/DVD release. On 26 January 2018, a recording of "Encore un soir" was broadcast on TF1 as part of "Jean-Jacques Goldman, 40 years in music".
