We might be trapped in the depths of a brutally cold winter, but that shouldn’t stop us from looking forward to springtime. After all, seasons change on a dime here in the Great Lakes State, and warmer weather will be upon us before we know it. There’s one incredible show that every Michigander should experience at least once – and you’ll be counting down the days until you can attend.

Cascade Falls, commonly known as the Cascades, sit at 1401 S Brown St in Jackson.
