CELINE DION ANNOUNCES CANCELLATION OF REMAINING COURAGE WORLD TOUR DATES FOR 2023 AND 2024

With a sense of tremendous disappointment, Celine Dion’s Courage World Tour today announced the cancellation of all remaining dates currently on sale for 2023 and 2024. This includes all dates in the UK scheduled for 2024.

As the world has emerged from the pandemic, Celine has continued to be treated for a diagnosed medical condition that prevents her from performing. Celine is working hard on her recovery, but at this time is unable to successfully prepare for and perform the remainder of the tour, which was scheduled to run from August 26, 2023 in Amsterdam through October 4, 2023 in Helsinki; then continuing from March 6, 2024 in Prague through April 22, 2024 in London.

We do have every hope that someday soon, Celine will be able to come to all of these cities in Europe to perform for her amazing fans, but that time simply is not now.

“I’m so sorry to disappoint all of you once again. I’m working really hard to build back my strength, but touring can be very difficult even when you’re 100%. It’s not fair to you to keep postponing the shows, and even though it breaks my heart, it’s best that we cancel everything now until I’m really ready to be back on stage again. I want you all to know, I’m not giving up… and I can’t wait to see you again!”

— Celine Dion

Celine had completed the first 52 dates of the Courage World Tour in North America before the pandemic emerged and paused the tour in March 2020.  In early 2021, when the entertainment industry was still working under tight COVID restrictions, Celine filmed her first motion picture, Love Again, co- starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sam Heughan. Since then, Celine has revealed that she has been diagnosed with a rare condition called Stiff Person’s Syndrome, which causes severe and persistent muscle spasms, and which has prevented her from performing. Celine’s medical team continues to evaluate and treat the condition.

Tickets purchased for the forty-two cancelled dates will be refunded via the original point of sale.

For further ticket inquiries or options, ticketholders should reach out to their original point of purchase.

The Courage World Tour shows in the UK and Ireland now being cancelled are:

2024

Manchester - AO Arena - Apr 9-10, 2024

Glasgow - OVO Hydro - Apr 13-14, 2024

Birmingham - Utilita Arena - Apr 17-18, 2024

CELINE DION RESCHEDULES 2022 EUROPEAN TOUR DATES TO 2023

UK “Courage World Tour” dates now rescheduled to 25 March through 11 April 2023.

As Celine Dion continues to recover from a recent health issue, the singer has announced she will be postponing her 2022 European “Courage World Tour” dates and rescheduling the shows to 2023. Celine had completed the first 52 shows on the tour before the pandemic emerged in March 2020, but recently has been treated for severe and persistent muscle spasms which are preventing her from performing, and her recovery is taking longer than she hoped. Her medical team continues to evaluate and treat the condition.

“I’m so sorry we have to change our tour plans for Europe one more time; first we had to move the shows because of the pandemic, now it’s my health issues causing us to postpone the shows,” Celine said. “I am doing a little bit better…but I’m still experiencing some spasms. I need to be in top shape when I’m on stage. I honestly can’t wait, but I’m just not there yet… I’m doing my very best to get back to the level that I need to be so that I can give 100% at my shows because that’s what you deserve.”

— Céline Dion

Celine Dion announces first leg of European Courage World Tour rescheduled to 2022

Rescheduled show dates announced for the UK.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the current restrictions on live events, it is with deep regret that Celine Dion has had to again reschedule the first leg of her European “Courage World Tour”. The European leg is now scheduled to begin on May 25, 2022 in Birmingham, at the Utilita Arena.

Celine and Concerts West/Marshall Arts Ltd continue to take the safety and health of music fans as a top priority. The original 2020 “Courage World Tour” dates in Europe were previously postponed to 2021 and now with ever increasing hope and renewed determination the dates are being rescheduled to 2022.

“We were really hoping to see all of you in Europe this spring, but obviously it’s taking a lot longer than we thought for the situation to be safe. At least we know that help is on the way with the vaccines, so we feel really good about these new dates in 2022, and I can’t wait to get out there and sing for you. We’re gonna have to make up for all this lost time, so please stay safe and healthy until we see each other again.”

— Celine Dion

Following last month's devastating attack on Manchester, Manchester Arena has made every effort to reopen, but has announced it must remain closed until late September 2017 while it undergoes repairs on its main foyer. 

Céline Dion was due to play at the Arena on Sunday 25 June and Tuesday 1 August, but will now play the First Direct Arena, Leeds on Sunday 25 June and Wednesday 2 August.

Current ticket holders will receive a refund and will be offered the chance to purchase tickets for the new shows at the First Direct Arena via unique links. They will be informed of when they will receive their refunds and when tickets will be available to them as soon as possible by the ticketing agents.

In a statement posted on the arena’s website: 

"Following last month’s devastating attack on the city we are now working towards re-opening Manchester Arena in early September. Whilst it was always our intention to honour our existing summer events, the damage caused to the main public area of the arena has left us with no other option than to remain closed until September. We are currently working with the promoters of our June, July and August shows to find suitable solutions for events affected by this unprecedented closure."

Any tickets for the two new Leeds shows not purchased by the original ticket purchasers will go on sale to the general public on Thursday 22 June at 10AM. These will be available to purchase by calling 0844 248 1585 or by visiting firstdirectarena.com.
