In Auburn, options range from park and waterfront activities to seasonal events and motorsports. For planning, the time frames are especially useful: the market, movies, and races take place in different months and on different days of the week.
Parks and Outdoor Activities
Auburn City Park is on Auburn Road, just north of US Highway 10. It has the Kid’s Zone, a play area with swings and slides. If you plan to visit the park, check the latest information about the facilities and local access conditions before your visit.
Catch-and-release fishing, canoeing, and kayaking are available at Auburn Pond in Auburn City Park. Fishing and boating offer different ways to enjoy the pond; fishing is subject to catch-and-release rules. Check the latest information about water access, fishing conditions, and rules before your visit.
Machelski Park is at the intersection of Midland Road and Auburn Road and serves as a place to rest while walking through town. It is a specific landmark to keep in mind if you plan to take a break while making your way through Auburn.
Market and Seasonal Events
From May through October, the Auburn Farmers Market takes place at the Farmers Market Pavilion in Auburn Park. The market is open Thursdays from 4 to 7 p.m. and Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. The two time slots differ considerably: Thursday offers a late-afternoon window, while Saturday offers a morning one. Check the latest market days and hours before your trip.
Movies Under the Moonlight takes place in July and August in downtown Auburn, in the parking lot of Tri City Furniture. Free family movies are shown, sponsored by local Auburn businesses. Since the months listed do not specify individual screening dates, it is worth checking the exact event dates before your trip.
Motorsports and Shooting Sports
Tri City Motor Speedway is in Auburn, Michigan, and features a 3/8-mile clay oval track. The speedway hosts stock car races on Fridays from late April through early September. Both Friday and the seasonal time frame are therefore relevant when choosing a travel day. By comparison, the farmers market takes place on Thursdays and Saturdays; check the dates for each event separately.
Auburn Shooting Range has areas for rifle, pistol, and archery practice. Public use is free only on designated days that are announced individually. An approved range officer must be present during use, and a liability waiver must also be submitted to the City of Auburn. Public days and conditions may change and may depend on the weather. Check the latest announcements before planning to use the range.
Seasonal Offerings at Warmbier Farms
Warmbier Farms offers perennials, herbs, and annual plants outdoors for the garden and nursery on a seasonal basis. More than 1,800 unique statues are also displayed outdoors. The season is explicitly relevant to the plants; the statue figure refers to the collection on display, which may change. This brings together two distinct offerings: a changing selection of plants and an extensive statue display.
