DETROIT FREQUENCY · ¼

Music has
a home address.

Motown, jazz, techno. Three sounds, one city, a whole lot of stories. Get into the groove, then find your kind of night.

SIDE A / MOTOWN

From one little house to the world.

Inside Hitsville’s Studio A, the Funk Brothers helped shape the Motown sound. Gospel, jazz, call-and-response vocals, and an irresistible rhythm carried Detroit’s Black musical heritage around the world.

Discover the Motown story ↗
SIDE C / TECHNO

The city that found a new beat.

Detroit is the birthplace of techno. Riverfront Hart Plaza is a landmark setting for the city’s electronic music gatherings: an industrial skyline, open sky, and a shared beat.

2648 W. GRAND BLVD.

Hitsville U.S.A.

Berry Gordy set out to build his own record label in 1959. The little house on West Grand Boulevard became one of the best-known addresses in the Motown story.

Before you plan: guided Hitsville tours are paused during expansion, with reopening planned for spring 2027. Check the museum’s other programs and latest updates separately.
