Brilliant People: Illuminating Futures, Strengthening Communities

Detroit’s future is being built—block by block, family by family.

Join us at Brilliant People, Brilliant Detroit’s signature annual celebration, held this year at the historic Harmonie Club! It’s an evening of music, connection, and momentum—where we raise a glass to the families shaping our city’s future and commit to what comes next.

🎟️ Every ticket supports free, high-quality programs for Detroit kids and caregivers.

Since 2016, Brilliant Detroit has welcomed more than 26,000 children and caregivers into neighborhood-based hubs offering year-round programming in education, health, parenting, and community connection. These hubs are run with, for, and by neighbors—and your ticket helps keep their doors open.

Come celebrate what’s working. Come connect with the people making it happen.
Come be brilliant.
