Gameday Hospitality Detroit Blue Zone Tailgate

The Detroit location is 456 Clinton Street, Detroit, MI 48226, near Ford Field. Use the Detroit event’s map and your stadium ticket’s gate information when planning the route between the tailgate and the game. The hospitality meeting point and the stadium entrance are separate destinations.

The organizer advertises non-drinking and drinking packages, plus a separate VIP option. General packages describe a three-hour entry window, food, music and games, with soft drinks for non-drinking admission and alcoholic selections for eligible drinking packages. VIP offers describe a dedicated seating area and attendant. Read the exact package before booking; benefits should not be assumed to carry across every ticket type.

Private tents are available in several sizes, including 10 × 10, 10 × 20, 10 × 30 and 20 × 20 feet, with tables and chairs. A tent reservation does not include guest admission: the organizer requires separate tailgate tickets for the people in the group. Confirm the group’s package and any VIP upgrade separately.

The tailgate partners with local businesses to provide a signature barbecue buffet cooked fresh on site. The menu typically features pulled pork and chicken sandwiches, burgers, hot dogs, wings, macaroni and cheese, cole slaw, and similar fare. Menu offerings change slightly each week depending on the time and date of the event. Morning tailgates feature breakfast dishes, while games later in the season incorporate holiday-inspired meals and special items throughout the year.

Drink selections vary throughout the season but generally include a wide range of options for different tastes. Drinking tailgate tickets provide access to beers, hard seltzers, canned cocktails, and mixed drinks, while non-drinking tickets include soda, lemonade, juice, and water. The specific brands and varieties available may differ from game to game.

Entertainment includes DJs or bands, tailgate games and giveaways. Check the exact event information for the planned program. These are activities within the hospitality gathering, rather than access to a stadium concert or the Lions game.

The advertised entry window is three hours, with the specific schedule tied to the game. Tailgate admission does not include a Lions game ticket. Confirm the start, location and package on your own order before traveling, especially if kickoff changes. Ask about parking separately; neither a tent reservation nor a hospitality ticket should be treated as a parking entitlement.
