The Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre

'Chene Park Tickets'

'

Chene Park Amphitheatre is located in downtown Detroit, Michigan. The park was built in the early 1980s to compete with other amphitheaters in the area and to give Detroiters access to the beautiful waterfront that was mostly used for a shipping port. It has developed into an exciting concert space in the heart of the bustling downtown area of Detroit. With the backdrop of the Detroit River and the City of Windsor, Canada, the amphitheater has been nationally recognized as one of the top 10 things to do in Detroit and one of the top 100 amphitheaters in the world. A-list music acts from those who made Detroit the home of Motown to present-day entertainers include Aretha Franklin,

Diana Ross

, Ray Charles,

Mary J. Blige

,

Snoop Dogg & the Dog Pound

,

DMX

, Nicki Minaj and 50 Cent. In 2018, Chene Park hosted A People's Tribute to the Queen and updated the name to be the Aretha Franklin Amphitheater. Visit StubHub to find great Chene Park tickets.
