Time has come to enjoy Detriot’s Movement Electronic Music Festival, one of the summer’s most highly anticipated events.
Electronic music fans from around the world will gather in Hart Plaza along the Detroit River for the 11th annual Memorial weekend celebration. While Movement’s home base is Hart Plaza, plenty of electronic music action will be happening in clubs and bars all over the city. Check our 2016’s review clicking here.
