The legendary singer will take to London on the 5 July 2019.
Celine Dion will be headlining a show as part of Barclaycard presents British Summer Time Hyde Park, taking to the stage on Friday 5 July 2019.

Celine Dion has been releasing music since the age of 12, where she teamed up with her mother and brother for French language release, Ce n’était qu’un rêve.
In 1990 she released her first English language album Unison, featuring single Where Does My Heart Beat Now which charted in both her native Canada and the United States.
She reached the UK chart the following year with Beauty And The Beast from the Disney film of the same name, teaming up at the time with Peabo Bryson.
It was 1993’s The Colour Of Love that ultimately propelled Celine Dion into the mainstream, reaching No.1 on the UK single chart with the huge power ballad Think Twice.
She followed suit in 1996 with the release of Falling Into You, which just like her previous English language release reached No.1 on the UK album chart, and spawned Because You Love Me, the Jim Steinman produced It’s All Coming Back To Me Now, and the notable cover of Eric Carman’s All By Myself.
In 1997, Celine’s My Heart Will Go On appeared on the soundtrack for the hit film Titanic, going on to reach No.1 across the globe. To this day, it remains one of the biggest selling singles of all time.
More recently, Celine Dion released the single Ashes, which appeared in the film Deadpool 2. Her latest English language full-length Loved Me Back To Life reached the top three in the UK and the United States, as well as No.1 in Canada.
The singer will now be bringing her extensive back-catalogue to London for a headline performance at Barclaycard presents British Summer Time Hyde Park on Friday 5 July 2019.
