What do ziplining, sand sculptures, and Morris Day and the Time have in common? They are among the dozens of featured events at this year’s GM River Days. Entering its twelfth year, the festival has become a staple of summertime in Detroit. The event leads up to the 2018 Ford Fireworks display, set for Monday, June 25. Kool and the Gang, Beatlemania Live!, Morris Day and the Time, and Donell Jones are among some of the festival headliners. Returning this year are the kid’s zone and a bevy of street performers and an air show provided by Tuskegee Airmen National Historical Museum.
