FRIDAY NIGHT KICKOFF PARTY

Join us for summer’s most stunning evening and support the Little Victors at University of Michigan Health C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital. We’ll shut down Main Street as Ann Arbor’s top chefs serve up their specialties, and we’ll dance to dazzling entertainment.

This one-of-a-kind experience makes a life-saving impact. Proceeds benefit the Charles Woodson Clinical Research Fund, which enables our doctors and scientists to take on the most devastating childhood conditions and diseases.

Since 2009, Event on Main has helped raise more than $5.5 million for the Little Victors at Mott. Help us continue advancing important areas of pediatric research and care. With your support and partnership, we can truly make a difference for families everywhere.

The Ford Fireworks is one of the very best shows in America and this year it will be even better!! In addition to this world class show, The Parade Company is once again holding Detroit’s summer kickoff that night, The Rooftop Party presented by Ford.  This spectacular event, held on the Center Garage roof is our annual fundraiser which helps to put on this great show along the Detroit River.

Please join us to celebrate our great City and support The Parade Company which not only puts on the Ford Fireworks, but also America’s Thanksgiving Parade® presented by Gardner White and the Strategic Staffing Solutions Turkey Trot.  This fundraising party sells out each year and is attended by thousands of Detroit business and civic leaders and their families!! The evening promises to be fantastic as we feature delicious food from Andiamo, complimentary beer and wine, groovy giveaways, and live broadcasts from the event by 760 WJR and WDIV-Local 4!!

This is truly the place to be on June 23^rd for the Ford Fireworks!!
