Céline Dion releases new single and announces Paris comeback concerts

Canadian singer Céline Dion has issued a new French‑language single titled “Bonjour, Pardon, Merci.” The song, co‑written by French songwriters Ycare and Renaud Rebillaud, draws inspiration from the Hawaiian Ho’oponopono prayer and conveys themes of love, forgiveness and gratitude.

Dion’s release precedes her first live performances in years. She will headline a series of shows at Paris’s La Défense Arena from 12 September to 17 October, with ten additional dates scheduled for May 2025. The concerts mark her return to the stage after a hiatus caused by her battle with Stiff‑Person Syndrome, a rare autoimmune disorder.

The new single and the upcoming concerts highlight Dion’s broader comeback, following a legacy of high‑profile Las Vegas residencies and a career that began with a 1988 Eurovision victory.
