City around

Welcome To Detroit, MI

The Possibilities for Fun are Endless in Detroit, MI

French colonists established the settlement along the Detroit River in 1701. Since that time, the city has grown into a major metropolis known for the auto industry and Motown music. Detroit also has three casino resorts, many historic homes and museums, which include the Detroit Science Center, the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant, the Tuskegee Airmen Museum and Fort Wayne.

Things to do

There is plenty of fun in the snow during the yearly Winterblast. Dozens of performers entertain guests. Local restaurants offer food samplings. Marshmallows roast over open fires and there are skating and snow shoeing demonstrations.

Music fans flock to the city for the annual Movement Electronic Music Festival over Memorial Day Weekend. More than 100 international and national performers entertain crowds with multi-media displays and digital music. Recommended by "Rolling Stone Magazine," the festival lineup has previously included the talents of Benny Benassi, Busy P. and Fatboy Slim.

Area residents enjoy land and water-based activities during the three-day Detroit River Days in June. The fun-filled gala event features riverboat tours, tall ships and wild jet-ski demonstrations along with concerts provided by local bands. Artists create elaborate sand sculptures and all enjoy the carnival.

The second weekend in August provides all with the chance to experience island heritage during the annual Detroit Caribbean Cultural Festival. Local and international performers offer musical and dance shows. The event also offers dance lessons, rum tastings and popular movies celebrating the culture. Children's activities are also part of the fun.
