Rod Stewart fans planning a Vegas getaway just hit a serious snag, as Ticketmaster now shows his two Colosseum at Caesars Palace performances for Friday and Saturday night as canceled. The concerts, set for 7:30 p.m., are marked "cancelled" in buyers' accounts, along with a note about refunds. Caesars Entertainment has not yet responded to requests for comment, leaving weekend travelers refreshing their feeds and wondering what happened.
Ticketmaster Flags The Dates As Canceled
According to the Ticketmaster event page for May 29, an "Important Info" banner tells customers, "Unfortunately, the Event Organizer has had to cancel your event. You don't need to do a thing," and notes that refunds will go back to the original payment method. FOX5 Las Vegas reported on the change in listing and said the station had reached out to Caesars Entertainment for comment but had not received a response.
Context: Stewart's Encore Shows At The Colosseum
Stewart had been booked for an expanded residency titled "The Encore Shows" at the Colosseum, a return engagement that Caesars billed as a late May and early June run. The schedule was announced by Caesars Entertainment, and the residency expansion had previously been detailed in coverage of six new dates at Caesars Palace.
What Ticketholders Should Do
Per the Ticketmaster event listing, customers who bought through the platform do not need to take any action. Refunds are set to be processed automatically to the original form of payment. If you purchased seats through a third party reseller or directly at the box office, you should contact that seller or Ticketmaster customer service for instructions on how to proceed. Keep an eye on official channels for updates, including the Colosseum, Caesars Entertainment and Stewart's camp, in case a statement or new dates are announced. This story will be updated if additional information becomes available.
