Paul Anka

Paul Anka takes over The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor on April 12, 2026. Born in Ottawa in 1941, he broke through at the end of the 1950s with ballads that blended pop and early rock’n’roll: Diana, You Are My Destiny, Lonely Boy, Put Your Head on My Shoulder. Early on he built a dual path as singer and songwriter, not only for himself but for others, notably crafting the English lyrics to My Way from the French Comme d’habitude, later claimed by Frank Sinatra.

On stage, Anka leans into a crooner’s phrasing and polished arrangements that have moved from teen pop to adult contemporary, with passing shades of jazz and swing. His discography keeps that curiosity alive, from the big‑band recastings of Rock Swings (2005) to the revisits in Duets (2013). In Windsor, he draws on a catalog that spans decades: early hits, the Sinatra connection, and rearranged favorites, delivered with the ease of someone who lives inside these songs.

Date: April 12, 2026. Venue: The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor, 377 Riverside Drive East, Windsor, Canada.
