This weekend River Days will be returning to the Detroit River Walk. The three day festival will feature a carnival, live music, great food, tall ships, Tuskeegee Air Shows, street performers and more! Although everything happening at River Days sounds awesome, of course we're most interested in the the live music portion.

River Days will have 3 stages set up along the river front. One will feature national headlining acts, while the other two will host a lineup of more local artists. You can check out the full music schedule here. Some of the bands that stuck out to us on that lineup are Boudoir Noir (Friday at 1:30 p.m.), 1592 (Friday at 4), Ryan Dillaha & The Miracle Men (Friday at 5:30), The B-52's (Friday at 8:40), The Native Howl (Saturday at 5:30), Stone Clover (Saturday at 8:30), Emily Rose (Sunday at Noon), Oak City Roots (Sunday at 5:15) and Orbitsuns (Sunday at 8:30).

Admission to River Days depends on what time you get there. Before 3 p.m. it's $3, it goes up to $5 after 3 p.m., and on Friday it's free to get in between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. Once you're in the gate, there is an extra charge for some activities, like the carnival rides, zip line, and river boat tours. For a full list of activities and prices click here. River Days kicks off on Friday, June 24th at 11 a.m. and goes until 10 p.m. on Sunday. And, just as in years past, it is all leading up to the big Ford Fireworks display on Monday, June 27th. at 9:48 p.m.
