History
First, Céline Dion gave 4 concerts for the Chinese New Year in January and February 1998 in Melbourne, Australia and Hawaii, United States. Later, in April she did 3 shows at the Caesar's Palace, Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Beginning with August 1998, Dion toured the United States, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan , Holland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Germany, and United Kingdom. In all, the sold out tour lasted more than a year, with 95 shows. It began on August 21 1998 in Boston, United States and continued to major cities around the world. It ended on December 31 1999 with a Millennium Concert in Montreal, Canada.
Céline Dion performed three virtual duets with artists displayed on the video screen: "Tell Him" (with Barbra Streisand), "Immortality" (with the Bee Gees) and "Treat Her Like a Lady" (with Diana King). Guest appearances included Jean-Jacques Goldman on "J'irai où tu iras" and Taro Hakase (violin) on "To Love You More" (this role was also played by two other people: Roddy Chiong (from Shania Twain's band) appeared during a few of Dion's early 1999 shows and the musician Mark Wood appeared with her in a couple of her late 1998 shows. Other shows featured no musician on stage and footage of Taro Hakase was shown on the big screen instead). Barnev Valsaint (backup singer) was joining Céline Dion on "I'm Your Angel."
Many shows after March 1999 that were originally announced, were cancelled due to René Angélil's sickness, Dion's husband and manager. Some of them were postponed until later in the year but those that were cancelled completely included Dublin, Birmingham, Frankfurt, Gothumberg, Vienna, Barcelona, Marseille, Lyon, Cologne and Lisbon.
Céline Dion gave her final public performance before going on vacation during the "Millennium Concert" at the Molson Centre, Montreal, Canada, on December 31 1999. She also did a private concert in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, on January 1 2000, open only to family and selected industry professionals (about 230 people).
Broadcasts and recordings
The June 19 1999 show at the Stade de France, Paris was filmed and released on DVD, VHS and CD as ''Au cœur du stade'' (August 1999).
