The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor

Next to the Augustus Tower, close to the hotel lobby and the valet entrance.

Caesars Windsor seating chart

The resort’s pages don’t publish a seating chart. They say seating varies by event and by how the room is set up, so go by the seat map for your own show when you buy.

Tickets and the Box Office

Where to buy
Ticketmaster or the Caesars Windsor Box Office.
Box Office hours
Fridays, Saturdays and show days, 1pm to 9pm.
Picking up
At the Box Office or Will Call.
Refunds
No refunds or exchanges. If an event is cancelled or rescheduled, tickets may be refunded where you bought them.
Late arrival
The show starts at the time on your ticket. If you’re not inside by then, you may be held at the door until a suitable break.

Age rules for shows

All-ages by default
All shows are open to all ages unless otherwise stated, and any limit appears with the event listing.
Young children
Anyone 12 or younger must come with someone 16 or older, or may be refused entry.
Elsewhere in the resort
The casino floor and the bars, including Cosmos, Vu Bar and Legends, are 19+.
A conflicting tag
The venue’s own page shows a “19+” tag, which doesn’t match the all-ages rule, so check the listing for your show.

Security, bags and what you can’t bring

Screening
Everyone walks through a metal detector and has their bag searched. Shoes, belts, hair clips and small jewellery stay on, but metal in your pockets comes out. Refusing can mean no entry and no refund.
Bags
7 × 5 inches (17.8 × 12.7 cm) or smaller is recommended. Up to 8 × 11 inches (20.3 × 28 cm) is at security’s discretion. No large bags or backpacks, and no refund if yours is turned away.
Medical equipment
Bags with medical equipment are allowed, and are searched too.
Not allowed
Weapons, projectiles, laser pointers, large containers, and outside food or drink, including alcohol.
Cameras
No audio or video recorders, tablets, or professional or consumer cameras. Phone photos may be allowed at the artist’s discretion, without flash.
Smoking
No smoking, e-cigarettes or cannabis inside. Smoking in the theatre means removal with no refund.
Stepping out
One rule says there’s no re-entry once you’ve left. The smoking rule says you can leave during the show for the designated area outside the McDougall Street entrance and return through the lobby level. Ask staff before you go.
Conduct
Harassment or heckling can get you removed without a refund and barred from the property.

Accessible seating

Seats
The Colosseum has accessible seating and venue features. The resort says to review the venue information when you buy, and guest services has more detail.
Getting around
Accessible routes run through the hotel, gaming, dining and entertainment areas.
Wheelchairs
May be available at the Concierge Desk. They’re free, with a credit card and a signed waiver.
Support persons
Staff offer reasonable help, or let a support person who’s with you assist.

Parking for a show

Self-parking
Free, in the Caesars Windsor garage, connected to the resort by a covered Skybridge, so you don’t go outdoors.
Valet
Entrance on McDougall Street, just south of Riverside Drive.
Show nights
Demand rises during major concerts, so allow extra time.

Getting there

Address for GPS
377 Riverside Drive East, Windsor.
From Detroit
Through the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel or over the Ambassador Bridge. Allow extra time for customs, especially on holidays and weekends.
Border documents
Carry what’s required to enter Canada and to return to the US.

Before and after the show

Hotel details are on the Caesars Windsor card, and it’s worth reading the age rules if you’re crossing from Michigan: 19 is the limit here, not 21.

Dinner first
Neros Steakhouse, Spago Trattoria and Legends Sports Bar are the resort’s suggestions.
After the show
Cosmos has live local bands and DJs, and Vu Bar has views of the Detroit skyline. Both are 19+.
Rooms nearby
The Augustus Tower is the closest, and the only one open to all ages.

Other 5,000-seat casino stages

The OLG Stage at Fallsview seats the same 5,000 and also defaults to all ages. Casino Rama concerts are in a room of the same size, but those shows default to 19+.
