With a voice that stretches far into the reaches of our imagination and a penchant for the dramatic, Celine Dion seems to transform music into a living thing. In her momentous return home to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, the brand-new show features 31 musicians, consisting of a full orchestra and band.
Celine has always been a pioneer in creating groundbreaking concert performances and this next adventure promises to be the best ever. The new show will include her biggest hits performed with a stunning visual presentation.
“I'm coming back home to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace and I'm very excited about it,” said Celine. “With the orchestra and the band we’re going to be able to perform our songs like never before. The repertoire is going to be extraordinary... a mix of timeless hit songs made famous by some incredible artists, along with all the favorites that my fans like to hear me sing. It’s going to be a very beautiful show, and I think we’ll be raising the bar higher than we’ve ever done before. There’ll be some truly wonderful moments… I can’t wait!”
After five consecutive years of sold-out shows at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Celine embarked on a yearlong worldwide tour in 2008-2009, visiting five continents, 25 countries and playing to more than 3 million fans. Following the conclusion of the tour, and after taking a year off to enjoy some valuable family time, Celine is preparing for her triumphant return to Las Vegas in 2011.
