Motown is renowned for its contributions to the music industry. Presented by the Motor City Music Foundation, the Detroit Music Awards recognize and honor Detroit area musicians during a multi-genre award ceremony hosted at the Fillmore Detroit. Previous winners at this event include Eminem, Kid Rock, Bob Seger, Martha Reeves, Insane Clown Posse and many more.
Located in the Detroit Theatre District, the Detroit Masonic Temple holds the record as the largest Masonic Temple in the world.

Come by the venue for various entertainment events, including concerts and Broadway plays, hosted on its 55 by 100-foot stage.
