Dearborn Homecoming Festival​ Returns, Raises More Money Than Ever

DEARBORN, MI — The Dearborn Homecoming festival returns after a two-year hiatus with more local sponsors than ever, Dearborn Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud announced Wednesday.

The festival is set to take place Aug. 5-7 on the grounds of the Ford Community and Performing Arts Center, located at 15801 Michigan Ave.

The festivities will include carnival rides, food and live music with headlining performances by former Journey lead vocalist Steve Augeri and country music artist Randy Houser.

Saturday and Sunday evenings will conclude with a spectacular fireworks show each night.

Hammoud said the annual event raised $126,000, which is $33,000 more than the 2019 festival and the most for any festival in the city's history.

"We’re incredibly grateful to see so much support from our business community," Hammoud said. "This record-breaking effort speaks to the excitement of bringing back a cherished community staple after two difficult pandemic years, and the desire to revive the community feel that makes Dearborn so special. We’re reminded once again that the spirit of generosity is always alive in Dearborn."
