19 Apr / 2019
Patrons Urged to Arrive Early and Prepare for Increased Traffic on Roads and in Parking Facilities

(DETROIT – April 19, 2019) – The District Detroit will see a multi-venue lineup of sports and entertainment offerings this weekend, including five remaining sold-out performances of Tyler Perry’s “Madea’s Farewell Play Tour,” a Detroit Tigers weekend homestand vs. the Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park, and the Detroit Pistons hosting Game 3 of the 2019 NBA Playoffs at Little Caesars Arena on Saturday, April 20. 

In anticipation of increased traffic due to the concurrent events throughout the city, 313 Presents is strongly advising guests attending Tyler Perry’s “Madea’s Farewell Play Tour” to arrive early and secure advanced parking online through ParkDistrictDetroit.com.
