LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Celine Dion will resume her Las Vegas show, “Celine,” on Aug. 27.
The Quebec songstress says her husband, Rene Angelil, encouraged her to return to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace this summer.
Dion hasn’t performed since her last July 29 show at the Colosseum.
She retreated from the stage to treat inflammation of her throat muscles and care for Angelil, who had a cancerous tumour removed in 2013.
Forty more performances are scheduled through Jan. 17, 2016. Tickets go on sale beginning March 28.
News of Celine’s return comes on the 12-year anniversary of her first performance at the Colosseum.
“I am excited to finally tell my fans I am coming back to Caesars Palace,” Dion said Wednesday in a release.
“It was Rene’s wish that I come back. While my family will always be my priority, my fans are just as important to me. I look forward to performing again for all of you starting Aug. 27th, and more importantly having Rene there with me. Thank you for giving me this time I needed to spend with my family.”
