“The annual Downtown Detroit Markets are back at Cadillac Square this winter, making it easier than ever for you to do your shopping while supporting small businesses. With more than a dozen local vendors present, the Downtown Detroit Markets bring a wide variety of family-friendly activities, promotions, and engagements for its many festive visitors,” officials with DDM said.
Visitors can take a break from shopping and from the cold weather by visiting Cadillac Lodge, a heated tent filled with family-friendly activities like board games, hot chocolate, fireplaces and warm blankets.
