Top 3 Things to Do This Weekend in Metro Detroit (Spoiler: They All Lead to Northville)

Metro Detroit weekends are full of options — concerts, sports, art fairs, cider mills — but let’s be honest: there’s only one event worth circling on your calendar this weekend. Here’s the totally unbiased, 100% accurate list of the Top 3 Things to Do in Metro Detroit… and yes, they all point you straight to Northville.

1. Step Back in Time (and Look Fantastic Doing It)

The Northville Victorian Festival is the crown jewel of the weekend. Picture cobblestone streets, old-timey costumes, horse-drawn carriages, and enough kettle corn to power an army. It’s not just a festival, it’s a full-blown time warp. The only thing missing? A clever tee to prove you were there. Lucky for you, SUM SHIRTS has you covered — literally. Stop by, grab a shirt, and become part of local history (with way less corset-related discomfort)... and you can get a Honeycrisp hoodie and show all your boogie friends who love apple picking how awesome you are.

2. Forget the Mall — Shop Local Instead

Sure, you could wander Twelve Oaks or Somerset. But wouldn’t you rather stroll through downtown Northville, supporting local makers, artists, and small businesses who actually care? Bonus: SUM SHIRTS is on the scene slinging tees that spark conversations, compliments, and maybe even a little envy. (Sorry, not sorry.)

3. Make Your Future Self Jealous

Ten years from now, you’ll barely remember that random movie you watched on the couch this weekend. But you will remember strolling through Victorian tents, hearing live music, eating elephant ears bigger than your head, and buying that perfect shirt that still makes people laugh. Future You wants a story. Present You should deliver... you can even hit your past you up with some retro inspired shirts, you're welcome.

So there it is: the official list. Three things to do in Metro Detroit this weekend, and all three end the same way — at the Northville Victorian Festival with a brand-new SUM SHIRT. History, humor, and a little hometown pride… what more do you need?
