A sunny, somewhat warm Saturday?!? Let's go outside and explore the city!
Our Windsor Express are tied 1-1 in their first round playoffs. Their next game is Thursday. Our Windsor Spitfires start Round 2 of their playoffs against the Flint Firebirds on Friday!
Along with the comedy, live music, workshops and triva, Paul Anka is coming to Caesars Windsor. We have Ghost Tours, a speakeasy, flea market, farmer's market, Matilda: The Musical, Rose City Romance, and a book launch. So much to do in the 519!
