The concert was issued as a DVD/CD combo in two editions: English-language Taking Chances World Tour: The Concert and French-language Tournée mondiale Taking Chances: le spectacle. Dion had embarked on the 2008–2009 Taking Chances World Tour for promotion of her 2007 studio album Taking Chances. It became one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. The performances in Boston and Montreal during the North American leg of Taking Chances World Tour were filmed for a video release and directed by Jean Lamoureux.
The release received positive reviews from music critics who praised Dion's stage presence, her powerful performances and chosen songs. It was also commercially successful. In Canada, Tournée mondiale Taking Chances: le spectacle was certified Diamond and Taking Chances World Tour: The Concert was awarded 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 top ten around the world. In some countries, it entered the album charts peaking inside top ten in few of them, including number five in France.
During the Taking Chances World Tour, Dion played concerts in five continents, 25 countries and 93 cities, selling more than three million tickets. Running from February 2008 through February 2009, featuring both Anglophone and Francophone setlists, the tour broke attendance and box office records at venues around the world.
