Céline Dion announced Wednesday she is getting back on the road next March.

The Canadian singer will resume her Courage World Tour with six shows in Paris between March 19 and 27 and then hit 30 more European cities before July 25.

Dion will also perform two concerts in Tel Aviv, Israel on June 19 and 20.

“I had really hoped that we’d be back on stage sometime this year, but nothing is more important than everyone’s health and safety,” Dion said, in a release. “The whole world has been going through such difficult times during this pandemic , and my heart goes out to all those who have suffered.

“I know we’ll eventually get through this together, and we’ll make up for all that lost time. I miss doing our shows. I can’t wait to sing with all of you again. Stay safe everyone…see you soon!”

Dion launched the Courage World Tour last September in Quebec City but was forced to pull the plug in March after 52 performances due to COVID-19. Remaining North American dates – including six shows in Vancouver, Edmonton, Saskatoon and Winnipeg – and the European leg of the tour were impacted.

An announcement about rescheduled Canadian dates will be made soon.
