Itinerary
Day 1 – Detroit, MI – Costumed Motown Dinner Show w/Martha Reeves Meet & Greet
Arrive today in Detroit, MI, where you enjoy a two-night stay.
Detroit is famous for being the birthplace of Motown, founded by Berry Gordy, in a modest house he called “Hitsville U.S.A.” Gordy incorporated elements of the Detroit auto assembly line into his business model, structuring the company with songwriters, producers, and artists, including the Funk Brothers as the house band. Motown’s music became the soundtrack for a generation and played a significant role in the Civil Rights movement.
Tonight is an an exclusive Motown Dinner Party and Dance, at the Motown Legacy Event Center. You will have a meet & greet with Miller London, the first African American Sales Executive for Motown Records, and Martha Reeves best known as the lead singer of the Motown girl group Martha and the Vandellas. The evening includes a delicious meal, and then a chance to move and groove to live Motown Music. (D)
Day 2 – Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation – Greenfield Village – Roaring 20’s Dinner Party at Packard Proving Grounds w/ Kasan Belgrave & The Black Gatsby’s – Ride in a Classic Packard
After breakfast, visit the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. Step into a world where past innovations fuel the imagination of generations to come. You’ll discover America – its culture, inventions, people and can-do spirit – and hundreds of hands-on ways to explore it, enjoy it and be inspired by it.
Continue your experience by exploring Greenfield Village, an open-air living history museum. It features over 80 acres of historic buildings, working farms, and interactive exhibits that showcase American life from the 17th century to the present. Here you will find Thomas Edison’s lab, historic homes and so much more.
Return to the hotel and freshen up for our evening at the Packard Proving Grounds. This factory included a test site for Packard Automobiles and part of tonight’s fun will be riding in an antique Packard over that original test track (weather dependent). This 14-acre site includes the Car Company’s original buildings which includes a museum, automobile exhibits and a large party room for our Dinner Dance. The Roaring 20’s Era saw Detroit grow faster than most American communities due to the unique combination of a roaring automobile industry, Prohibition and Speakeasies, and the explosion of jazz music. Tonight we celebrate that history.
Your dinner show is an exciting Roaring 20’s dinner with a Prohibition Era Cocktail. Guests should dress the part, perhaps you organize a contest on your bus. Entertainment is provided by Kasan Belgrave & The Black Gatsby’s. He is the son of the late Detroit Jazz Artist and Master Trumpeter, Marcus Belgrave, a multi-woodwind-instrumentalist. Kasan takes pride in contributing to Detroit’s rich pedigree of musical mentorship, passing on jazz melodies through generations. In 2017, he performed a duet with the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin in her last ever live Detroit performance at the Music Hall. (B, D)
