LAS VEGAS (CelebrityAccess) — Canadian singer Celine Dion announced the latest and final round of dates for her long-running Las Vegas Residency.
On Monday, Dion announced that her stay at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace will come to an end on June 8, 2019.
“I definitely have mixed emotions about this final run,” said Celine. “Las Vegas has become my home and performing at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace has been a big part of my life for the past two decades. It’s been an amazing experience and I’m so grateful to all the fans who have come to see us throughout the years. Every show we do at The Colosseum throughout this fall, and right up until the final one, will feel very special.”
She launched the first of two residencies at Caesars Palace in March 2003 and has since performed 1,089 shows in front of 4.5 million fans at The Colosseum. Her first residency, A New Day… played 717 shows from March 25, 2003, through December 15, 2007.
Her second and current residency, Celine, premiered in Las Vegas on March 15, 2011, and has been going since.
The shows are presented by Concerts West/AEG Presents and Caesars Entertainment.
“What an extraordinary part of our lives these shows have been,” said John Meglen, co-CEO of Concerts West/AEG Presents. “Celine took such a leap of faith, made such a big bet on Las Vegas when she decided to perform A New Day… all those years ago. And look what she’s done…she has changed the landscape of entertainment in Las Vegas. What she started, as a crazy idea that didn’t make sense to a lot of people, has now become the norm. Now everyone wants to perform a residency in Las Vegas! All of us have Celine to thank for really making Las Vegas the entertainment capital of the world.”
