Details:
The Concert of Colors returns this summer for its 35th annual free global music festival in the heart of Detroit and WDET is proud to be an official media partner. The Concert of Colors is one of the nation’s longest-running, largest, free and global music festivals featuring music from around the world at its best.
The Concert of Colors was established by Ismael Ahmed (host of WDET’s This Island Earth) and New Detroit in 1993 as a one-day event at Chene Park on Detroit’s riverfront. The inaugural event drew a modest crowd to Chene Park, but by 1999, some 10,000 music lovers were coming out each year. The festival expanded to three days in 2001, when it was part of the official festivities for Detroit’s 300th birthday, drawing an audience of 100,000. In 2019, the concert expanded to nine days. In addition to music, the Concert of Colors also brings global food and merchandise vendors, movies, poetry, children’s activities and much more to the members of the Detroit community.
