On Sunday, Detroit celebrated its annual Marche du Nain Rouge parade. Established in 2010, the tradition riffs on Detroit’s folkloric Nain Rouge, a mischievous imp said to be a harbinger of doom who, depending on who you ask, is either a devil who deserves to be driven out of town or simply a misunderstood benevolent spirit. Either way it’s a party, and everyone brings their own energy to the event — think of it as something like Mardi Gras with a quirky Motor City twist. Here’s everything we saw.
