Calendar

Our annual strolling music festival will once again bring 13 of the area’s best musicians Civic Center Park. This year though, it's a BATTLE. Yep, you heard that right. New this year is a battle of the bands component with the top musician - as voted on by YOU, taking home a $1,000 prize (2nd gets $500 too).

We've also got a family fun zone, food trucks, a small business vendor section, and... new to this year's festival is our 1st ever Beer Tent! The Madison Heights and Hazel Park Chamber of Commerce partnered with us and picked some beers you're gonna love! Plus, aside from supporting both groups, a portion of proceeds will go directly to the musicians playing on the trail. So come and drink responsibly for a good cause!

The festival lineup this year includes something for everyone, with a diverse array of genres represented along the trail (from all genres - rock, jazz, funk, acoustic, etc).

Many of your favorite Trail Tunes musicians from years past will be back with us again playing intimate sets in unusual places throughout the park. Watch them all, or spend the whole event at your favorites. Your choice. Just don’t miss it!
