Ticketmaster Halts Céline Dion Sale for 'Suspicious Activity'

Céline Dion fans have been left frustrated after Ticketmaster unexpectedly halted the onsite to the legendary singer's comeback shows in Paris.

“Tickets are still available for Céline Dion. Our technical teams have identified suspicious activities and are actively working to prevent these actors from disrupting the sale. We are doing everything possible to restart the queue as quickly as possible. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused and sincerely thank all affected fans for their patience and understanding.”

One fan wrote on X that the ordeal was "a drama in 4 acts"," while another wrote, “I have been 5000th in line stucked for at least 40 minutes and now they are saying tickets are almost sold out. Who is buying them if the queue in not going through? Ticketmaster explain yourself.”

Another fan directly asked Ticketmaster: “Would you be so kind as to unblock the queue for Madame Céline Dion’s concerts at Paris La Défense Arena, please. Best regards, All the people who have been waiting for 1 hour to get tickets !!!!”

DIon is scheduled to perform a massive 10 shows at Paris venue La Défense Arena between September 12th and October 14th. The run of shows marks the Canadian singer's return to the stage after postponing her past tour due to her stiff-person syndrome diagnosis.

“This year, I’m getting the best birthday gift of my life … I’m getting the chance to see you, to perform for you once again,” Dion said in an Instagram video when announcing her Paris shows. 

“I want to let you know that I’m doing great. I’m managing my health, I’m feeling good, I’m singing again, even doing a little bit of dancing, obviously," the legendary singer added.
