Marquette City Tree Lighting
Date: December XX
Location: Third Street & Marquette Commons
Time: TBD
Holiday Parade
Experience the magic of the holiday season as children of all ages take in the wonder of the annual Downtown Marquette Winter Snow Fun Holiday Parade. Bundle up with friends and family as illuminated floats, tinsel-strewn trucks, and colorful carolers transform Third Street into an enchanted North Pole scene.
The Marquette Post Office will also be collecting letters during the holiday parade as it goes down Third Street. Bring the little one and their letter so Santa receives their Christmas wishes.
The parade will travel South down Third Street towards the Marquette Commons.
Tree Lighting
After the parade, meet us at the Marquette Commons for the 52nd Annual City of Marquette Tree Lighting! We will illuminate the community with music, dance, and the joy of the season. Look below to see what is new and what to expect at this year’s City Tree Lighting.
