Winter at Valade is back for another weekend festival. Visit the Detroit Riverfront for FREE family fun on Saturday and Sunday to celebrate Winter Around The World.
Bundle up and head to the Detroit Riverfront for Winter at Valade Park! Visitors can warm up by oversized outdoor fires, enjoy hot seasonal drinks, make s’mores on the custom marshmallow roasters, grab a sled from the Sled Shed (featuring free sleds when it snows), and more this weekend.
