WELCOME TO THE MAX OUR HOME ON WOODWARD AVENUE The Max M. and Marjorie S. Fisher Music Center is one of Detroit’s most notable cultural campuses. The Max includes three main performance spaces: historic Orchestra Hall, the Peter D. and Julie F. Cummings Cube (“The Cube”), and Robert A. and Maggie Allesee Hall. All are accessible from the centrally located William Davidson Atrium. The Jacob Bernard Pincus Music Education Center is home to the DSO’s Wu Family Academy and other music education offerings. The DSO is also proud to offer The Max as a performance and administrative space for several local partners, including Detroit Public Theatre, Detroit Youth Volume, and others.

To report an emergency during a concert, immediately notify an usher or DSO staff member. If an usher or DSO staff member is not available please contact DSO Security at 313.576.5199

Parking

Shop @ The Max

The DSO Parking Deck is located at 81 Parsons Street. Self-parking in the garage costs $10 for most concerts; we take both cash and credit cards. Handicapped parking is available on the first and second floors of the garage. Note that handicapped parking spaces go quickly, so we recommend arriving early!

As of October 2021, Shop @ The Max is currently closed. Please check dso.org for updates ahead of your visit.

What Should I Wear? You do you! We don’t have a dress code, and you’ll see a variety of outfit styles. Business casual attire is common, but sneakers and jeans are just as welcome as suits and ties.

Food and Drink As of October 2021, the DSO is offering beverage only concessions. Please check dso.org for the latest ahead of your concert. Bars are located on the first and third floors of the William Davidson Atrium and offer canned sodas (pop, if you prefer), beer, wine, and specialty cocktail mixes. While drinks may be taken to your concert seat, the DSO’s mask policy will be enforced when you are not actively drinking.

The DSO’s Sennheiser MobileConnect hearing assistance system is available for all performances in Orchestra Hall.
