Winter at Valade

Dec 10, 2021 - 4:00pm to Dec 12, 2021 - 7:00pm
This event occurs every week until Sun Feb 27 2022 except Fri Dec 24 2021 and Fri Dec 31 2021.

Valade Park will be the go-to destination on the riverfront this winter! Each weekend, starting December 10th, visitors can warm up by oversized outdoor fires, enjoy hot seasonal alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, make s'mores on our custom marshmallow roasters, grab a sled from the Sled Shed (featuring free sleds when it snows), play synthetic ice curling and more.

The Detroit Riverfront Conservancy is committed to helping visitors embrace winter by extending our great riverfront programming year-round. Through socially-distanced fun, the riverfront will provide a much needed place of respite for our community.  Stay tuned to our facebook page for all the latest information.

 Our last weekend of Winter at Valade celebrates Mardi Gras! View the full schedule below.
