Hats and Horses has been cancelled due to COVID-19.

It was originally supposed to take over the Meridian Centre on Saturday, May 2nd.

It had been postponed to September 5th but the organizers have decided to call it off due to the uncertainty of the pandemic.

Those who already bought tickets will be refunded within the next 30 days.

The event raised over $60,000 for Community Care of St. Catharines and Thorold, FACS Niagara and the Niagara Children’s Centre last year.
