Hamtramck Blowout 2026
Blowout is back! The three-day music festival takes over “The World in Two Square Miles,” spread across 18 venues with over 130 local acts. Born in 1998 as a Metro Times event to highlight local music, the original Blowout launched with just 74 bands and helped introduce soon-to-be legends like the White Stripes and Eminem to wider audiences. After years of evolution and reinvention, the festival was reborn in 2024 as a fundraiser for the Hamtramck Labor Day Festival, a grassroots effort led by local musicians and volunteers who refused to let the tradition die. Headliners include Zastava, Danny Kroha, Werewolf Jones, Ryan Allen and the Full Court Press, Cult of Spaceskull, Dear Darkness, Deastro, Amino Acids, and more, but the best thing about Blowout is the joy of discovery — of stumbling on your next favorite local artist. Get a wristband and let Blowout do its thing.
