The Cadillac Square Markets + Lodge seeks to reimagine and revitalize the historic Cadillac Square as a vibrant hub of commerce and community gathering. This visionary project combines two main elements:

The Pop-Up Markets: These markets are inspired by the festive atmosphere and diverse offerings of European pop-up markets from around the world. They provide a platform for emerging businesses and entrepreneurs, with a strong emphasis on supporting Detroit-based, minority-owned, and women-owned companies. The markets showcase a wide array of unique products, artisanal goods, and delectable treats, creating a one-of-a-kind shopping and dining experience.

Cadillac Lodge: Inspired by the cozy ambiance of après-ski lodges and northern ski resorts, the Lodge at Cadillac Square offers a warm and inviting retreat from the winter chill. It provides a space for visitors to relax, enjoy seasonal refreshments, and soak in the enchanting holiday atmosphere. The Lodge serves as the perfect complement to the bustling markets, allowing patrons to take a break and savor the spirit of the season.

The Cadillac Square Markets + Lodge is more than just a holiday attraction; it's a catalyst for positive change in Detroit. By prioritizing Detroit-based, minority-owned, and women-owned businesses, the project contributes to economic empowerment and inclusivity within the local community.

It creates opportunities for these entrepreneurs to showcase their products and connect with a broader audience. Additionally, the project has become a cherished tradition for residents and a must-visit destination for visitors, drawing hundreds of thousands of people each season.
