Organizers of the Dutch Mason Blues Festival say most of the concerts scheduled for this weekend in Dartmouth have been cancelled because of poor ticket sales.

In a statement, organizers said the cancellations will affect the waterfront concerts scheduled at Alderney Landing for Aug. 7 to 9.

However, the concert featuring Bonnie Raitt and James Cotton at the Dartmouth Sportsplex on Aug. 8 will go on as scheduled.

Some of the performers that had been scheduled to play at Alderney Landing will join the Sportsplex concert. These musicians include Rick Vito & The Lucky Devils, Michael Williams and Darrell Nulisch.

Organizers say any Waterfront Concert ticket holders can have their tickets refunded or exchanged for Saturday's concert by contacting Ticketpro Box Office.
