Movement Festival 2024 Review

Article written by and photos by Jordyn Ward


In summarization, the experience of Movement 2024 was the feeling of being young. Dancing like there is no eyes on you in a sea of 1000s of attendees, Drinking like the morning isn’t approaching, watching your favorite DJs put on unworldly sets, and being engulfed in the heart of Downtown Detroit by skyscrapers and the view of the water. With hundreds of performers and nights that never end with after parties going until the next day’s sets begin if you’ve ever wondered what you could do to experience youth this was a festival that had the ability to do it. 

The standout performances of the weekend have to go to Stacey Pullen a Detroit native with decades in the techno industry, DJ Holographic the funk machine herself, Dom Dolla coming off of a historic Coachella performance, Italian DJ, Adiel who is known for her hypnotic music and boiler room performance and Ludacris the man of many of many talents ranging from starring in one of the biggest action franchises in the world to being one of the biggest and most influential rappers of all time. Sadly Day 2 was rained out missing out on highly anticipated sets from Avalon Emerson, Nicole Moudabar and Sama’ abdulhadi, Ellen alien and a few others.

Despite the weather conditions shortening the weekend, this festival featured everything that a person needs for a great time from a variety of cultural cuisines, decently priced drinks that’ll make your night memorable the scenery out of a coming-of-age film, and unforgettable performance from the best of the best.

TECHNO, EDMN, RAP. EVEN WITH IT’S IMPERFECTIONS, THIS FESTIVAL IS WELL WORTH PUTTING IT IN YOUR SCHEDULE FOR 2025
