Detroit Downtown Hoedown The dates for the 29th Annual Detroit Downtown Hoedown 2011 will be Friday, May 13, 2001 -- Sunday, May 15, 2011 in Hart Plaza, downtown Detroit.
This event is hosted by Detroit's Country Music Radio Station WYCD 99.5 FM. 

View the full line up for the Downtown Hoedown 2011.

This years line up will consist of over fifty bands on three stages over the course of the three days.
There will be a lot of local bands playing as well as some more familiar names like Josh Gracin, Steel Magnolia and Jason Aldean.

Past performances have showcased the talents of country music stars Rascal Flatts, Garth Brooks, Reba McEntire, Montgomery Gentry and Big and Rich just to name a few.
Detroit is better known as the car capitol or the city of Motown, but we can also throw a great country music party.


If you like square dancing or line dancing. If you love boot scootin' knee slapping, kick your heels up and dance music then you better make it to the FREE festival. This is a rain or shine event.line dancing

Even the boaters can enjoy the music while they float on the waterfront with Canada in the background.

There is also a wide variety  of food to be had. From corn dogs and elephant ears to some great curly fried potatoes AND wood fired steaks. Did I mention, there's plenty of beer on tap.

Mary, I'm not what you would consider a bIG country music fan but we make it a point to go downtown for this FREE event every year.

Thank you for the well wishes. On my way to the first milestone. I see you just crossed over 300,000 -- CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU.

Craig--we like free events, too.  Erie has several festivals/events during the summer including Celebrate Erie.  We used to have Winter Festival, but it was hard to plan.  You would think the weather would be cold enough for winter type activities and we would have warm spell. 

Thanks noticing to pts.
