DETROIT (WXYZ) — It's expected to be a busy weekend in Detroit as tens of thousands of people head downtown and to Comerica Park for the Tigers home opener against the Chicago White Sox.
You'll likely see festivals and parties taking place in Detroit to celebrate since this is the first "normal" Opening Day since 2019 as fans weren't allowed in 2020 and they were limited to start 2021.
If you're looking for something else to do, there are plenty of events planned in metro Detroit. We've compiled a list of seven things going on this weekend.
