Celine Dion’s Paris Residency: All New Music Recorded at Studio at the Palms
Celine Dion has recorded all of her new music at Studio at the Palms as she prepares for her Paris residency, according to a July 2026 report. The Canadian singer, known for hits like “My Heart Will Go On,” is reportedly finalizing material for her upcoming performances in the French capital, which are set to begin in late 2026. The studio, located in Las Vegas, has become a key location for her recent creative work, marking a shift from her previous recording habits.
A representative for Dion did not immediately respond to requests for comment. However, industry insiders familiar with the project confirmed the singer’s focus on the Studio at the Palms, a venue that has hosted high-profile artists in recent years. The residency, described as a “multimillion-dollar undertaking” by a source with knowledge of the deal, is expected to draw audiences from across Europe and beyond.
