Reasons to Head to the Detroit Riverfront this Summer

Whatever age your children are, the Detroit Riverfront has something of interest this summer. From shopping, dining and browsing new GM cars at the Renaissance center, to the carousel, the Riverfront has more going on than ever.

Big events such as GM River days June 20 - 23, and the 50th annual Target Fireworks on  Monday, June 23 can start your summer off in Detroit spirit. The Detroit riverfront also has historic sites nearby, such as the Mariners’ Church of Detroit, built in 1848 for the spiritual needs of Great Lakes sailors.
