Pre-parties and afterparties
There are more than a dozen official pre-parties that are spread out leading up to the event at music venues throughout the city and into metro Detroit.
The official Movement opening party is taking place at Spot Lite in Detroit on Friday, May 27. It features Body & Soul, along with François K, Joe Claussell and Danny Krivit.
Also on May 27, there’s an event at The Magic Stick featuring Mikey Lion, Lee Reynolds, Marbs and Porky, and an event at The Masonic Temple’s Fountain Ballroom.
The afterparties are happening every night after the festival wraps up on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Saturday night features events at the Masonic Temple, Spot Lite, TV Lounge and City Club.
On Sunday night, there’s an event called “Elevate” at The Magic Stick, and the final afterparty will feature DJ Minx and friends at Spot Lite on Monday, May 30.
Finally, it’s incredibly easy to get around. There are a variety of transportation options, but if you’re staying Downtown, it might be easiest to walk. There’s also the QLine, which goes from New Center to Downtown, just a few blocks away from Hart Plaza.
