We do realize the rain is to stop, but it is drenched downtown and the stage is soaked. The band made the choice that they felt comfortable with.

The band is here and has decided to cancel.

This is a great pre-concert event. Union Station Smoke House

Yes, we know… Mother Nature seems to be having a bit of a tantrum today. 🌧️⚡ But we’ve seen this before—she roars, she pours, and then she settles down like nothing happened.

We promise, as soon as we know if tonight’s concert is a go, you’ll know too. That decision won’t be made this morning, so hang tight! It is way too early to ask.

In the meantime, let’s all cross our fingers (and our toes!) and hope she decides to play nice. 🤞☀️🎶

🚨 Social District Rules – Let’s Keep It Fun AND Legal! 🚨

Did you know? Michigan law requires a social district for outdoor public events to have alcoholic beverages in certain areas, but there are important rules you MUST follow so everyone can enjoy it safely and responsibly:

🍹 Drinks must be purchased from a participating Social District member.
🥤 You MUST use the designated Social District cup.
🚫 No outside alcohol is allowed—do not bring your own drinks from home. This is illegal.
🚫 No refills from your car or anywhere else. Refilling your cup this way is illegal.
🚫 Do NOT carry a drink from one bar into another. Each cup is tied to the place where you bought it.

We’re asking everyone to obey the rules. Don’t ruin what so many enjoy and what so many worked hard to make possible. Let’s keep the Social District safe, fun, and available for all. 🍻🎉

Thank you for being part of what makes Durand a great place to gather!
