Downtown Detroit Winter Markets

Downtown Detroit Winter Markets Info Session

Are you a Detroit-based small business or located in the Metro Detroit area and interested in popping up this holiday season?

The Downtown Detroit Winter Markets, presented by the Gilbert Family Foundation and managed by the Downtown Detroit Partnership, with support from Bedrock, Ask Jennyfer, and TechTown, have created a magical and memorable holiday experience in Cadillac Square for Detroiters and visitors alike.

Since launching in 2017, the markets have served as a launch pad for more than 160 small businesses—providing a unique opportunity to showcase products, grow your brand, and connect with thousands of shoppers in the heart of downtown Detroit.

If you’re interested in being part of this year’s market, we invite you to attend one of our upcoming info sessions.
