LIGHT UP LIVERNOIS

SATURDAY

JULY 11, 2026

LIGHT UP LIVERNOIS fashion, art, design festival, celebrates, and “illuminates” Detroit’s unrivaled creative class. The event showcases our most notable designers, architects, fashion talent, visual artists, and more. It shines light on the amenities along the avenue, as we “park, walk, shop, dine, and explore,” Detroit’s “makers,” and its re-emerging Livernois merchant corridor. Produced by IBA Detroit CDC.
