FANS of the world-class music diva, Celine Dion, who were unable to get tickets for the first concert scheduled for the Coca Cola Dome will have a second chance to enjoy an unsurpassed musical performance in Montecasino.

Due to high ticket demands by fans across the country, Dion has added a second concert at Montecasino to the South African leg of her "Taking Chances" world tour which kicks off on 14 February at the Dome.

Tickets for the first concert were sold out within days of the sales opening. Now 94.7 Highveld Stereo and Mr Price, in association with Kusasa Entertainment, have secured a second additional concert by the world's biggest-selling female solo artist for the night of Saturday, 1 March.

The concert will be staged outdoor, next to the new outdoor Piazza, giving the audience the opportunity to experience the magic of the diva in a Tuscan village under open African skies. Fans will also make use of the location's convenience with ample parking space, many restaurants and many entertainment options for both the young and older generation.

Fans in Joburg, Pretoria, Durban, Western Cape and Port Elizabeth will get a chance to see the multi-award winner on stage. Tickets are available at Mr Price stores or at Ticket Connection and are priced from R880 to R3 000.

The performance at the Dome on 14 February starts at 7.30pm and in Montecasino on 1 March at 8pm.
