Michigan Central Station Concert: Here's The Lineup

DETROIT — The revamped Michigan Central Station in Detroit kicks-off its reopening this week with live music performances from a list of top names, including local all-star acts Diana Ross, Jack White and Big Sean.

The outdoor event, "Live From Detroit: The Concert at Michigan Central," is scheduled to take place in front of the iconic Detroit train station at 8:30 p.m. Thursday.

Detroit icon Eminem is producing the show along with his manager Paul Rosenburg, though it's unclear if Eminem will make an appearance for the show.

You can watch the sold-out on Local 4 (WDIV). The show will stream on Local 4+ and Peacock, and then again Sunday on NBC as a prime-time special.

Here is the lineup:

• Diana Ross
• Jack White
• Big Sean
• The Clark Sisters
• Kierra Sheard
• Illa J
• Sky Jetta
• Detroit Symphony Orchestra
• Theo Parrish
• Slum Village
• Melissa Etheridge
• Common
• Fantasia

"We wanted to celebrate the reopening of Michigan Central Station in style and make it a night to remember for Detroiters and people watching around the world," Bill Ford, executive chair of Ford Motor Co., said in a statement. "I am honored and grateful that so many of Detroit’s musical legends, sports heroes, artists and innovators are joining us to celebrate the city we all love and the bright future we are creating together."

Public tours for the Michigan Central start Friday and run through June 16. Those tours are sold out, but new public tours will then be available on Fridays and Saturdays through August.

The iconic train station closed in 1988 and was abandoned until Ford bought the station in 2018 and began a years-long renovation, totaling $1 billion.

After reopening the station this month, officials will begin a phased reactivation of the building over the next several months and years, with plans to add restaurants, retail and other commercial and community-focused partners to take up residency.
