Headed to the legendary Movement Detroit? Here are set times, the festival map, and other essentials for a stellar weekend!
Welcome to Detroit, the Big D, and arguably the home of techno. Over the years, Movement Detroit has grown from a local, techno-focused festival to a global powerhouse featuring techno, house, and so much more! Be on the lookout for marquee names like Dom Dolla, GRiZ, Adam Beyer, and Richie Hawtin, along with some incredible Detroit talent that is not to be missed!
One of the best features of Movement Detroit is that re-entry is allowed, so you can enter and exit Hart Plaza as needed. Hart Plaza is a well-contained oasis on the waterfront and Paxahau makes sure to fill the park with everything you need. Another terrific feature is that the afterparties are absolutely amazing, and nearly always within walking distance of the main event. Lastly, within walking distance of Movement Detroit is a ton of history, culture, food, and entertainment for those arriving before or staying after the festival.
