[edit] History

Dion started her tour in early March 1994 in Canada performing at the O’Keefe Centre in Toronto. She gave 6 concerts at the Montreal Forum in late March and early April.

Between April 21 and May 6, 1994 she sang in Tokyo and Osaka at David Foster tribute.

From June 8 to August 27, 1994, Céline Dion toured the United States with Michael Bolton. They performed in twenty-thousand-seat-arenas, and in the "sheds" that open onto natural amphitheaters. It was their second, sold out tour.

In September 1994 Dion performed in France and in December 1994 in Japan.

She toured the United Kingdom in May 1995 (sold-out concert at Hamersmith Apollo, London on May 25 among others).

[edit] Broadcasts and recordings

September 7, 1993 and September 8, 1993 concerts at Le Théàtre Capitole, Quebec City, Canada were filmed and aired at CTV television network in December 1993 and the Disney Channel in February 1994. They were used for The Colour of My Love Concert home video.

In September 1994, during a series of sold-out shows at the Olympia, Paris, Céline Dion recorded, on the 28th and 29th, a live album. It has been released at the end of the year, under the title À L'Olympia. However, the video was never released.
