Billboard reported that Céline Dion’s 16-show engagement in Paris generated $125.5 million, with ticket sales reaching 539,000. The performances took place during September and October at the Plenitude Arena under the name Céline Dion Paris.

The figures put the residency’s average gross at about $7.8 million a night, according to Billboard. Average attendance reached 33,700, twice the next-highest attendance figure per performance for a residency. Despite those nightly numbers, the engagement did not enter the top 10 residencies ranked by overall gross.

Dion, 58, made her stage comeback in 2026. A stiff-person syndrome diagnosis had led to her 2023 tour being canceled. Her earlier residency work included performances at the Las Vegas venue The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

Another Paris residency is expected in May 2027. During September, Dion also gave fans an unscheduled performance away from the arena, singing and dancing atop a car alongside a group in the French capital.
