DEARBORN, Mich., June 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Get ready for an unforgettable Fourth of July celebration as two of Michigan's most cherished cultural institutions, The Henry Ford and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra (DSO), come together once again to present Salute to America, July 2–5, 2025, in the historic heart of Greenfield Village.

For more than 30 years, Salute to America has brought people together in a unique blend of history, community, and musical excellence. Set amidst 80 acres of American history, Greenfield Village transforms into a summer celebration from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. each evening.

A Multi-Sensory Independence Day Experience

Guests will enjoy a lively mix of musical ensembles, street performers in period dress, and classic village attractions, including free carousel rides and holiday themed vignettes. With seven historic districts to explore, every step brings a new sound—from ragtime and Motown to choral harmonies, jazz, and blues.

Adding to the fun are street food vendors, selections of craft beer and adult beverages, holiday themed treats, and of course Greenfield Village's world-famous custard. With an additional purchase, guests can also attend our Summer Salute Dinner in the Lodge at Christie and Main which includes summer picnic favorites.

As the sun sets, the evening culminates in a grand performance by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Na'Zir McFadden, DSO Assistant Conductor and Phillip & Lauren Fisher Community Ambassador. The DSO will perform a powerful program of orchestral favorites, including selections from Duke Ellington, John Williams and Aaron Copland and Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, complete with live cannon fire.

The night concludes with a dazzling fireworks finale that lights up the skies above Greenfield Village.

Salute to America is a beloved tradition, and tickets sell quickly. Don't miss your chance to be part of this patriotic celebration.
