Celine Music

THE COLOSSEUM

"Our mandate from Céline was to bring her as close as possible to her fans, said Colosseum designer Patrick Bergé, president of Scéno Plus. Our mandate from Franco was to create a vast performance space, in order to totally immerse the audience within the action on the stage."
"The circular building configuration, that strikingly calls to mind a Colosseum, was the perfect solution, with the farthest seat only 120 feet from the stage. This distance compares to showrooms that have one-third or one-fourth of the Colosseum’s seating capacity. And the shape also enhances the acoustics, which will be amazing," Bergé added.

The construction of the Colosseum began when Park Place acquired the resort on December 29, 1999. The magnificent room of 4,000 places and with an area of 171,235 sq ft, which costed $95 millions to the Caesars Palace, is connected in the heart of the Caesars Palace hotel complex.
In Las Vegas, all the big productions rose on a base of 4,000 daily spectators, with two representations in a 2,000-seat room. Because she has to take care of her voice, Céline Dion will give only a single show a day, but in a 4,000-seat room.
