The headline story: Céline Dion turns Paris into a residency city
Céline Dion is the season’s defining Paris booking. Plenitude Arena lists performances running from 12 September to 17 October 2026, followed by a further run from 8 to 29 May 2027. That span changes the travel equation: fans should treat the show as a short city break, confirm the precise ticketed date, and build hotel and transport plans around La Défense rather than central Paris alone.
Where are the venues?
Accor Arena
8 boulevard de Bercy, 75012 Paris. Metro 6/14 and rail connections at Bercy/Gare de Lyon make public transport the practical option.
Plenitude Arena
99 Jardins de l’Arche, 92000 Nanterre, beside La Défense’s transport hub. Allow extra time for crowd routing.
How to buy safely
Start at the artist or venue page and follow its approved seller. Plenitude Arena specifically identifies AXS, Ticketmaster France and Fnac Spectacles for its Céline Dion sales, and warns that social-media claims of guaranteed tickets are unreliable. Check the named venue, date, seat category and seller domain before payment; save the mobile ticket offline only after the official app or issuer permits it.
Concert-night travel advice
- Use public transport where possible and check the final departure before the encore.
- Arrive early: bag checks and controlled entry can lengthen queues.
- Do not assume “Paris” means central Paris; Plenitude Arena is in Nanterre.
- For airport arrivals on show day, protect at least two hours beyond normal transfer time.
- Book accessible seating and parking through the venue’s dedicated channel.
