Céline Dion has sold over 180 million records worldwide, of which some 500,000 in Finland (not counting the soundtrack album of Titanic). Her upcoming Taking Chances world tour (named after her recently released new album) will be her first tour in nine years. During the past five years Dion starred in her own hugely successful show A New Day at the Caesars Palace Colosseum in Las Vegas.
The Taking Chances world tour 2008-2009 will start in Johannesburg, South Africa on the 14th of February and will span five continents, 25 countries and over 100 cities.

Mexican-born Santana has sold over 100 million albums and won 14 Grammy Awards. He has performed in Finland several times. He also played at Pori Jazz before, nearly 20 years ago, in 1988.
