Lansing is the capital of Michigan with a population of over 500,000. The city offers a blend of high tech and cultural resources. What is now Lansing was settled by explorer Hugh Henward in 1790. The land was originally named Biddle City when surveyed by two brothers from New York in 1835 with settlers renaming it Lansing after an area in New York where they came from.

Lansing has much to offer visitors. The city is rich in culture including the award winning Lansing Symphony Orchestra. For those looking to sample the nightlight of Lansing there are many bars and clubs including Kelly’s, Brannigan Brothers, The Firm and Tavern on the Square. The Lansing JazzFest, Old Town BluesFest, Festival of the Moon and Sun, Common Ground Festiva and Oktoberfest are among annual events.

From farmers markets and a wide array of restaurants to a happening night life and fun annual events Lansing has much to offer visitors to the city.
