What is Marche du Nain Rouge?

Every March around the Equinox, thousands of revelers gather for a parade through Midtown Detroit to celebrate their city.

They wear grand costumes, build spectacular floats, roll out marching bands and krewes representing all corners of the city.

Will the Nain Rouge — Detroit’s legendary harbinger of doom — appear at the Marche du Nain Rouge, armed with witty barbs and a half-baked scheme to take Detroiters down a notch? Come to the parade and find out!

​

Marche du Nain Rouge is a nonprofit run primarily by volunteers.  

Join the fun

At the Marche, you are the parade.
