Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Centennial Park Grand Opening

About This Event

Grand opening celebration of the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Centennial Park on the Detroit Riverfront.

What to Expect

• 1.Plan to explore the park on foot rather than expecting a single seated program. Give yourself time to wander and take in the Detroit Riverfront setting.
• 2.This is an outdoor event, so check the forecast and dress for changing fall weather. Comfortable shoes and a light layer are a safer bet than dressing for a quick stop.
• 3.Grand openings can draw a crowd, especially around any ceremonies or activities. Arriving near the 10:00 a.m. start may make it easier to explore before the busiest stretch.
• 4.Check current parking and transit options before you go, and leave extra time for getting to the riverfront. Don't count on food vendors unless the organizers confirm them.
