Taking Chances World Tour: The Concert is a home video and live album by Canadian singer Celine Dion. It was released by Columbia Records on 29 April 2010 in Australia, and in early May 2010 in Europe and North America. The concert was issued as a DVD/CD combo in two editions: the English-language Taking Chances World Tour: The Concert and the French-language Tournée mondiale Taking Chances: le spectacle. Dion embarked on the 2008–2009 Taking Chances World Tour to promote her 2007 studio album Taking Chances. The tour became one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. Performances in Boston and Montreal during the North American leg were filmed for the video release, directed by Jean Lamoureux.
The release received positive reviews from music critics, who praised Dion's stage presence, her vocal performances, and the selection of songs. It was also commercially successful. In Canada, Tournée mondiale Taking Chances: le spectacle was certified diamond, while Taking Chances World Tour: The Concert was certified four-times platinum. The DVD was also certified platinum in the United States, and the album received gold certification in France. It topped the DVD charts in the United States and several European countries, and reached the top 10 in many others. In some territories, the video release entered the album charts, peaking inside the top 10 in a few of them, including number five in France.
