Taking place in front of Ford’s newly purchased Michigan Central Station, attendees will experience an array of Black owned vendors and food trucks as they enjoy performances from some of Detroit’s hottest up-and-coming artists.
“I launched the Kindred Festival to celebrate black culture and create a platform for Detroit artists from various genres to come together and showcase their skills,” said Leah Hill, founder of Kindred Media & Entertainment. “Music, art and business are part of Detroit’s fabric and it is time we have a platform to showcase our talent like other cities do. Chicago has Lollapalooza, Philadelphia has Made in America, California has Coachella and Miami has Rolling Loud. Now Detroit has the Kindred Music & Culture Festival.”

With the goal to make Kindred Music & Culture Festival a household name not only in the city of Detroit but also amongst music festivals around the country, Leah and her team will continue to bring awareness to Detroit’s unique sounds and Black owned businesses through what has become, Kindred Music Festival.
