The annual Cider in the City event is returning this October, jam-packed with all things autumn to celebrate cider in Downtown Detroit. On the weekends of Oct. 11-12 and Oct. 18-19, gather the family and head to Beacon Park for live music, seasonal eats and other fall festivities that everyone will love.
Food at Cider in the City
The cider, apples and donuts by Blake Farms are the main focus of this event, but there are plenty of other seasonal bites to try. Lumen Detroit will be serving up seasonal cocktails, craft beer and hard cider, and food trucks will be stationed in the park per the following schedule:
- Oct. 11: Big Bo’s + Little Caesar’s
- Oct. 12: Los Dos Amigos + Busta Dawgs
- Oct. 18: Sonny’s Hamburgers + Andiamo
- Oct. 19: Los Dos Amigos + Andiamo

Activities for families
Cider in the City brings fall fun for kids and parents alike. While the littles enjoy fall festival attractions like horse-drawn hayrides and pumpkin painting, the grown-ups can sip a hard cider over big-screen football or browse local vendors. Here are the available attractions:
- Donuts, cider and more for purchase courtesy of Blake’s Farms
- Horse-drawn hayrides
- Make-and-take crafts
- Face painting (Sundays only)
- Pumpkin painting
- Food trucks
- Live DJs
- Football on the big screen
- DTE Electric Vehicle Experience (on Oct. 18 and 19 only)

What to bring
First, bring your friends and family to share the fall fun – remember that seats are first-come, first-served, so plan accordingly. Pets can join, too, as long as they are leashed and cleaned up after. Finally, leave your food and beverages outside the gate, and bring a respectful attitude. View the Cider in the City website for further prohibited items.
