Selion Dion announces the cancellation of her concert tour, December 8, 2022 (PR)
After postponing her concerts in Israel that were supposed to take place last year, Celine Dion cancels the concert in Israel that was planned to take place on May 31, 2023 at the Bloomfield Stadium.
The production stated that the reason for this is "her health condition which does not allow her to perform".
Her performances in Europe planned for spring 2023 have been postponed to spring 2024, but the production stated that "unfortunately, her managers have informed us that she will not reschedule her appearance in Israel, as well as seven additional performances planned for Cyprus, Malta, Greece, Romania, France, Italy and Switzerland."
In two long video messages to fans, in English and French, the famous Canadian singer announced the cancellation of the concerts.
Dion shared with fans that she suffers from a rare neurological disease called SPS ("Stiff Person Syndrome") which causes her to have seizures and prevents her from performing.
During the message, Dion burst into tears twice, when she explained that she couldn't do the thing she likes to do the most - sing.
