S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Festival cancelled at Caesars Windsor

Unforeseen circumstances have forced Caesars Windsor to cancel Saturday's S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Festival at the Colosseum.

The show, featuring Guns N' Roses lead guitarist Slash, was announced in March. Keb' Mo', ZZ Ward, and Robert Randolph were expected to join Slash on stage.

S.E.R.P.E.N.T. stands for Solidarity, Engagement, Restore, Peace, Equality, N' Tolerance. The Blues and Rock show raises money for charities like the Equal Justice Initiative, Know Your Rights Camp, The Greenlining Institute, and War Child.

Refunds are available at the Caesars Windsor Box Office, which is open Fridays and Saturdays from noon to 8 p.m. and on show days from noon to 10 p.m. Customers need to bring photo I.D., proof of purchase, and their ticket.

Tickets purchased online or by phone through Ticketmaster will be automatically refunded.
