City of Romulus
Downtown Romulus

Our quaint, revitalized downtown features numerous shops and businesses, with our historic district serving as its focal point.


The Downtown area is also the site of the annual Romulus Pumpkin Festival and Parade of Lights - a harvest celebration that generates enthusiastic spirit and regenerates our sense of community.

Each year, on the third full weekend in September, our festival begins with a night parade where everything that moves - from bicycles to cement trucks are lighted.  The street festival offers wonderful music, food, crafts and games for all ages.  And it's everything pumpkin - pumpkin rolling, pumpkin pie eating and pumpkin seed spiting.

Romulus' historic Downtown is a place of celebration of family and friends - during the Festival and throughout the year.
