The University of Windsor Students’ Alliance is “incredibly excited” to host the Coming Home Music Festival to coincide with the Halloween weekend, says president Ghallia Hashem.

The event is set for Oct. 26 at the riverfront Festival Plaza.

“We are merging the high energy of the Coming Home Music Festival with the eerie excitement of Halloween, creating a night filled with musical thrills and festive frights,” Hashem says. “This event is more than just a concert. It’s a celebration of Windsor, its community, and the strong sense of identity that comes with being from this great city.”

The all-ages concert will feature rapper, singer, and songwriter Swae Lee, whose 2018 single “Sunflower” topped the Billboard Hot 100 charts and received two Grammy Award nominations.

“Swae Lee promises to bring a dynamic performance that will light up the night,” says Hashem.

She encourages concertgoers to wear costumes to bring out the Halloween spirit: “Don’t miss out on this wicked fusion of festival excitement and seasonal spookiness.”

Tickets are $30 plus tax and for sale from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily in the CAW Student Centre, or online through Eventbrite.
