MOTOR CITY CAR CRAWL

“It was totally different when I was a little girl. It’s beautiful now and it’s great to see that Detroit has revived and rejuvenated,” said Sybil Edwards. “It’s a wonderful place to be.”

The entire weekend event is free except for Saturday night’s charity gala where Sheryl Crow will perform. The proceeds will go to eight different charities that help children in need.

Events are taking place at six different parks downtown -- Campus Martius, Cadillac Square, Beacon Park, Capitol Park, Grand Circus Park and Spirit Plaza -- each with a specific kind of vehicle glistening in the bright sun.

The inaugural car crawl brings the latest in auto technology and style to Downtown Detroit's six parks.

The first ever Motor City Car Crawl comes to downtown Aug 5-8. The free event features 40 vehicles placed throughout 6 parks downtown, food trucks, vendors and live concerts.
