There are usually so many things to do in and around Detroit that it might be overwhelming to decide what to do, which is exactly why Secret Detroit is trying to make your life easier by creating this list of the five best things to do in Detroit this week.
So, without further ado, here is our list of the top five things to do in the Detroit area this week that you won’t want to miss out on:
1. Attend the NFL Draft Downtown for free
With Detroit hosting the NFL draft this week for the first time, this event is truly the can’t-miss event of the year! The event kicks off Thursday afternoon and continues through Saturday, making for three straight days where you can get a chance to join the crowd of hundreds of thousands of other NFL fans, football insiders, and fellow Detroiters.
2. Take the whole family to Launch Trampoline Park in Dearborn for a full day of fun
The new Launch Trampoline Park in Dearborn has been open for just over one month and it’s already one of the most fun places to be in the Detroit area. With an in-house restaurant and something for everyone, you could truly spend a whole day here without ever realizing it! The best part is that there aren’t just trampolines, there are also bowling, arcades, laser tag, and a full ninja course, but that’s just the start of it!
Location: 5901 Mercury Drive, Dearborn, MI
3. See Big Sean perform for free on the NFL Draft stage
The local icon is scheduled to perform at 6:15 pm on Thursday, April 25th, right before the first-round draft selections start on day one of the NFL draft.
4. Watch Bazzi close out the NFL Draft festivities with a free concert
Bazzi is slated to perform after the conclusion of the final round of the NFL Draft on Saturday evening, when that exactly will take place depends on the pace of the draft selection itself, but while the timing is uncertain right now, one thing you can count on is that he will perform his icon hit, “Mine”.
5. Grab a seat at one of your favorite local Detroit sports bars
With the draft this week in Detroit, the downtown area is going to be swamped with crowds, so if you’re not interested in that, you can get comfy at one of these amazing sports bars in Detroit!
