There’s a reason why Detroit is home to so many major companies like Blue Cross/Blue Shield, General Motors, Compuware as well as the majority of the automotive industry and many other booming businesses.
With a rich sports history, and major teams like the Lions, Tigers, and the Red Wings, Detroit isn’t just a great place to work, it’s a fantastic place for sports lovers. With multiple casinos in the downtown area, the famous Greektown cultural area, and Windsor just a drive across the bridge or through the tunnel – you can get your playtime on after watching the Tigers play in Comerica park or the Wings throw down at the Joe.
Add in the availability of Detroit International Airport (DTW), a major Delta hub with flight connections to just about everywhere and regional flight opportunities from Detroit City Airport, and you have the perfect storm of meeting space, events, and accessibility for your team building event!
Unlike a lot of cities where there is a very distinct downtown area such as San Francisco or New York City, Detroit is spread out throughout a large metropolitan area across three counties – Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb. There are several major industrial and corporate centers, including Southfield, Troy, and Farmington Hills in Oakland County, Romulus and Livonia in Wayne County, and Warren and Sterling Heights in Macomb County. We have a Midwest regional facilitator, so that should help keep your travel costs down for your greater Detroit team building event!
