The Cass Tech Band, representing Detroit's well-known magnet high school, has traveled all over the U.S. and performed at numerous colleges and universities. Its audiences have included three Michigan governors and the past three mayors of Detroit, including Coleman Young, Dennis Archer and Kwame Kilpatrick, a Cass Tech alumnus.

The annual parade featured contingents of international students and community members traveling from Hancock Middle School and across the Portage Lake Lift Bridge to Dee Stadium in Houghton.

After the parade, the community attended the Multicultural Festival, where foods from around the world were served.
