Did you have a good time at this year's parade? We need your support by March 31.

The Marche needs to raise at least $5,000 this year to break even. Thanks to you, we're getting close to bridging our gap. But we're still a little short.

Each year, we are proud to bring you Detroit’s largest community art parade; where YOU are the parade. The creative self-expression of 10,000 wacky, wonderful Detroiters and their friends in costumes, alter egos, handmade creations, and wild ideas transforms the streets into a one-of-a-kind spectacle. There’s truly nothing else like it.

For over 15 years, we’ve produced one of Detroit’s most unique and beloved events. But we can’t do it without you.

Sponsors and supporters — local businesses, individuals, philanthropic organizations, and corporations — all provide critical funding that makes this free public event possible. Your support helps cover essential costs like:

Police and public safety
Fire permits
Event Insurance
Porta-johns
Barricades
City permits

As costs continue to rise nearly 10% more this year alone — your contribution matters more than ever.

Whether you give $5, $50, or $500, every single dollar helps ensure that the Marche continues to bring creativity, community, and joyful chaos to the streets of the Lower Cass Corridor.

If this parade has ever made you smile, inspired your creativity, or made you feel part of something magical, please consider giving today.

Thank you for helping keep this Detroit tradition alive.

Help us Marche in 2026!
