Movement 2022

First Movement back from the pandemic.  SO GOOD TO BE BACK.

Movement 2019

Another year, another great Movement experience.  It’s practically routine at this point, though this time we stayed further inland Detroit at the Westin.  Very nice hotel and a pleasant walk - that is except when a really strong storm blows in and the festival shoos you out into the streets to fend for yourself.  Luckily we ignored their advice and took refuge down into underground stage where the crowds are always joyous during inclement weather.

Highlights for me this round were Disclosure, Golf Clap, Floorplan, Madlib, and of course Carl Craig.  There were also a host of nameless/faceless DJs that I totally got down to as well.  After parties were also amazing, and once again a consideration for going to Detroit that weekend for a completely flipped schedule.

Movement 2018

Another great year at Movement!  Such a fun festival of music and people - and dancing!  I was a little restricted from dancing this year which was a little tragic, but I was still able to have a fun time!  Here are some selected pics below, but you can find the full set here.

And video of course: 

Movement 2017

Another year, another Movement electronic music festival.   

"DETROIT — If the giant commercial music festival seems to be a model of the recent past and the small, carefully framed festival seems one of the evolving future, Detroit experienced both past and future last weekend.

The Movement Electronic Music Festival had its tenth annual edition here on Memorial Day weekend, attracting a total of more than 100,000 people from Saturday to Monday to Hart Plaza downtown and to after-parties until daybreak around the city. "

Movement 2015

My second year of attending Movement, formerly known as the Detroit Electronic Music Festival (DEMF!).  Again, a fabulous year - but this time with the perks of VIP!  Totally worth it - and will do it again next year…   Here are some highlights.

Movement Festival 2014

What an amazing festival experience this was, my first electronic music festival.  So thankful to some old and new friends for sharing this with… A great space, great music, and lots interesting and extremely nice people. 3 days of non-stop dancing. Great food too!  Check out some shots and a compilation video.

 

Check out some other thoughts on the first couple days of the fest.

Next year’s dates have already been announced.  They’re on my calendar!

"In the blink of an eye, Movement Detroit has already penciled in May 23rd, 24th and 25th, 2015 for next year’s festival dates. The annual event will return to Hart Plaza – Detroit’s renowned waterfront destination - during its traditional Memorial Day Weekend slot."
