Marche Du Nain Rouge Party

As thousands gather for Detroit’s beloved Marche du Nain Rouge, Detroit Shipping Company will once again serve as a central gathering point for paradegoers with a full day of music, drinks, and community celebration in the heart of the Cass Corridor and Chinatown districts.

This annual Detroit tradition brings residents and visitors together each spring to celebrate local culture while supporting the small businesses that help define the neighborhood. With many independent restaurants, cafes, bars, and shops participating throughout the area, the day highlights the energy and creativity that make the Corridor one of Detroit’s most vibrant districts.

Detroit Shipping Co. invites guests to stop in before and after the parade to keep the spirit of the day going with DJ sets, food and drink specials, and a lively crowd celebrating Detroit traditions and the Year of the Fire Horse.
