Beacon Park is transforming into a spectacular winter wonderland, featuring a one-of-a-kind, interactive gathering space. The “Design Haus” series will launch during the Light Up Beacon Park festivities on Friday, Nov. 17.

Designed to inspire and energize visitors, this space showcases our creative community featuring next gen technology, curated art displays, special performances, while connecting to the park’s sustainability mission.

Guests are also invited to experience Beacon Park’s “Northern Lights” installation with larger-than-life light displays, including a 15-foot infinity snow globe, a gigantic walkthrough snowflake and gleaming décor made up of 125,000 dazzling bulbs.

Warm up in the enclosed, heated tent, which will feature live entertainment, art installations, themed décor, visual displays, photo backdrops and a pop-up winter cocktail spritz bar by Lumen Detroit. A perfect setting for capturing memories and Instagrammable moments.
