Canadian singer Céline Dion has headlined fifteen concert tours, two concert residencies, eight one-off concerts and five television specials. As of July 2022, Dion has reportedly grossed $1.35 billion and has sold 10.9 million tickets worldwide.[1] She is the second highest grossing female touring artist, third by any solo artist and seventh overall.[2] According to Billboard Boxscore, she is the second woman in history to reach one billion in tour revenue[3] and one of the only eight artists to cross the billion-mark in history.[4]

Dion has performed on three concert tours during the 1980s: Les chemins de ma maison, Céline Dion en concert and the Incognito tournée. She then headlined two concert tours between 1990 and 1993, following the release of her first two English-language studio albums. The Unison Tour and Celine Dion in Concert visited cities across Canada. In 1994, Dion embarked on her first world tour The Colour of My Love Tour, which visited countries in North America, Europe and Asia. In 1995, she performed across 47 shows (including 42 sold-out shows) for D'eux Tour. In 1996, she performed on the worldwide tour Falling into You: Around the World, visiting some of the biggest venues in Europe, such as the Parken Stadium and the King Baudouin Stadium. It was followed by the 1998 Let's Talk About Love World Tour. The tour's two-night shows at the Stade de France broke records and made Dion the first artist to perform in front of over 90,000 spectators at the venue, a total of 180,000 ticketholders over the two nights. The tour received mainly positive reviews from critics and earned $133 million.[5]

Dion took a rest from touring and began her first concert residency A New Day... in 2003. The show was a massive success, becoming the highest-grossing residency show of all time ($385 million).[6][7] After performing for five years in Las Vegas, Dion returned to touring in 2008 with Taking Chances World Tour. It marked her first concert tour in 9 years since Lets Talk About Love Tour. It broke multiple attendance records in the Bell Centre, the Sprint Center, the New Orleans Arena and the American Airlines Arena[8][9] and became the second highest-grossing tour by a solo artist of the 2000s decade ($279.2 million).[10][5] Dion returned to Las Vegas in 2011 for her second concert residency, Celine. The show earned $296 million throughout its run, becoming the second highest-grossing residency show in history. According to Billboard, Dion has grossed $681 million from two of her residency shows, becoming the highest-grossing residency act in history.[4]
