History
editAfter 5 concerts in Quebec City, Canada, Celine toured Europe for four months. Dion crossed 11 countries and gave 42 sold-out concerts, among which 9 in Paris, France, most in rooms of at least 14,000 seats. One of the opening acts was made by the group The Corrs (in the United Kingdom and Ireland). During one of the spectacles at the Zenith de Paris Celine broke her voice.[3][4]
Broadcasts and recordings
editThe show at Zénith de Paris in Paris was recorded before an audience of over 6,000 fans[5] and released on CD in October 1996 as Live à Paris. The next month a VHS under the same name was issued. The home video was re-released on DVD in November 2003.
